Patient's question:
AgeDetailed medical condition and consultation purpose:
1. Three days of discharge similar to sludge, with no abnormalities in the first two days of using Daktarin suppository, but itching in the private area became unbearable on the third day after medication. The drug instructions also mention this reaction. Please ask the doctor what is the reason? Should the medication be stopped and replaced with another drug? What drug should be used? How should it be used specifically? How long is a course of treatment?
2. Nearly 5 years of history of vulvar itching. Please ask if it is related to candidal vulvovaginitis. How should it be treated scientifically and systematically? (Using Daktarin externally also caused unbearable itching, so the medication had to be stopped.)
3. How to prevent
Doctor's answer:
You can use alkaline solutions such as baking soda to rinse the vagina, twice daily. After rinsing, keep the external genital area dry to inhibit the growth of fungi. Insert a clotrimazole suppository into the vagina after rinsing, one suppository per night for 7 days; or use a nystatin suppository, one suppository per night for 10-14 days. At the same time, symptomatic sexual partners should also be treated. Intercourse is not allowed during treatment.
