Patient's question:
Medical Description: After undergoing tests and a color Doppler ultrasound, it was diagnosed as vaginitis. Due to the inflammation, numerous small bumps have grown on both the inner and outer walls of the labia, and there is also hyperplasia at the vaginal opening. The color Doppler ultrasound results indicated multiple changes in the ovaries.History of Treatment and Effect: No treatment has been administered.
Desired Help: The doctor said that treatment for the inflammation should be received at the hospital. It involves a procedure that lasts about 10-15 minutes and needs to be repeated several times. The inflammation must be resolved first before addressing the hyperplasia. The doctor mentioned that medication is ineffective for this condition. Is this correct? Is it necessary?
Doctor's answer:
If vaginitis has been diagnosed in the hospital, treat it according to the corresponding anti-infection methods, distinguishing whether it is bacterial or fungal. Next, after recovery, avoid washing adult and children's underwear together, as this can easily lead to cross-infection. It is recommended to clean the girl's external genitalia daily and change her underwear every day; after defecation, wipe from front to back to avoid fecal contamination of the external genitalia; when the child has infections in other parts of their body, do not use antibiotics indiscriminately, or follow the doctor's advice, with the medication duration not being too long. When parents have candidal vaginitis, bathing utensils (bathtubs, towels, bath towels, etc.) should be separated from the child to avoid cross-infection.
