3. Yellowish clumps with an odor
History of treatment and effectiveness: Frequent rinsing with water has been ineffective
Desired help: What are these symptoms? How can they be completely resolved? What precautions should be taken?
Doctor's answer:
This is the symptom of candidal vulvovaginitis. Generally, if it is simple vulvovaginal candidiasis, local medication is recommended for effective treatment. Commonly used medications include clotrimazole vaginal suppositories. Symptoms can usually be effectively relieved within 2-3 days of medication. It is recommended to use the medication every three days during the treatment of vaginitis.If the condition is more complex, it is advisable to use some medications for systemic treatment simultaneously, and the course of treatment should be appropriately extended based on the severity of the condition. For pregnant women, local treatment is still the primary approach for treating vaginitis.
In terms of diet, it is essential to maintain a light and balanced diet, avoiding irritants, spicy foods, and allergenic foods. Additionally, maintaining a regular schedule and engaging in appropriate exercise to strengthen the body can also play a supportive role in the treatment of vaginitis.
