Patient's question:
When having sex with my wife, I used my fingers to rub her downstairs, and afterward she felt itchy downstairs. What could be the reason for this? How should I handle it? Or should I buy some medicine?Doctor's answer:
According to your condition description, external genital itching is mostly a symptom of vulvitis and vaginitis. It is recommended to undergo a gynecological examination and a routine vaginal discharge test to determine the cause based on the test results. You can also apply erythromycin ointment or Bactroban initially. Pay attention to maintaining cleanliness and hygiene of the external genitalia, avoid spicy and irritating foods. If there is no improvement, you should go to the hospital for a routine vaginal discharge test and then receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to personal hygiene, keep the external genitalia clean, avoid infection, change underwear frequently, and expose underwear to sunlight frequently. Avoid hanging them to dry to prevent the possibility of mold infection.
