I want to take medication myself to see if it improves, but I am allergic to penicillin and similar drugs. What medication should I take?Duration and onset of the current illness: Feeling lower back pain
Medical history: Previously had Mycoplasma genitalium infection and actively treated it.
Doctor's answer:
Your condition is considered to be a fungal vaginitis, and of course, men can also be infected. It is best to do a routine vaginal discharge test to confirm the diagnosis and see what type of vaginitis is causing it. Then, actively cooperate with treatment, as it can be cured. I wish you a speedy recovery. If men are infected, they will also experience symptoms such as itching and redness or swelling of the glans. The penis is the male reproductive organ and must be cleaned before sexual intercourse to prevent bacteria from entering the female vagina, which could lead to gynecological diseases. There is often some dirt accumulated between the foreskin and the glans of the penis, and this dirt must be cleaned. It is necessary to lift the foreskin to clean the inner lining.
