Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Today, I was diagnosed with candidiasis (yeast infection), and the doctor prescribed Nistatin ointment for me. However, when using the medication, I experience intense pain and a burning sensation. Can I continue using it? Is it an allergic reaction? I have researched online and found that there are many types of vaginitis. Could you please explain the differences between them? For example, what are the differences between trichomoniasis and candidiasis? I am very urgent because this is my first time experiencing this condition.Doctor's answer:
Currently, the treatment of candidal vulvovaginitis primarily involves vaginal medication. However, when a woman has candidal vulvovaginitis, it tends to recur frequently and is also contagious, so both partners need to be treated. The male partner can use diluted potassium permanganate solution or baking soda water for cleaning and apply antifungal medications, such as fluconazole. Additionally, the female partner can use Li Baimian Funjing Dan, which has a powerful enzymatic effect on eliminating candidiasis.Furthermore, Li Baimian Funjing Dan's unique internal vaginal care factor can balance the pH of the vaginal environment within a short period, promote the rapid reproduction of beneficial bacteria like lactobacilli, restore the self-cleaning function of the vagina, and fundamentally prevent the recurrence of candidal vulvovaginitis from an immunological perspective.
Finally, both partners should pay attention to the cleanliness of the perineal area and change underwear frequently.
