Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I have developed some chicken skin-like bumps around the outer area of my vagina, and sometimes they itch. When I scratch them with my hands, they become very painful. I'm very scared, and I think it might be hemorrhoids (I've never had hemorrhoids before, so I don't know what they look like.) My vaginal discharge is also abnormal now—it's almost solid. I really don't know what to do! Am I still salvageable?Duration of the current illness: Five days
Medical history: In the past, I only had excessive vaginal discharge, but I never had this solid-like substance.
Previous diagnoses, treatments, and outcomes: None
Doctor's answer:
The external female genitalia are covered with pubic hair. It is normal for the skin to have folds and bumps, and it is normal if there are no warts or redness. If there is a fungal infection, it may lead to increased vaginal discharge and itching of the external genitalia, but it will not cause bumps. However, using sanitary napkins during menstruation can cause bumps on the external genitalia. You can apply Prazeron to the bumps and observe the effect. Allergies can be treated with a single application. The most common condition in women is genital warts, but genital warts are sharp and itchy, affecting the external genitalia, vagina, and cervix. They are contagious, so don't worry too much. If the tests are normal, then there is nothing to worry about. During menstruation, pay attention to hygiene and avoid soaking in baths.
