Later, another lump appeared, and then it spread to the genital area. The condition alternates between having lumps, breaking the skin, and developing uneven, rough patches. I have seen doctors multiple times, but the treatments have been ineffective. It has flared up again for 2 days, and I don’t know what to do. My discharge is excessive, white, thick, and has a slight odor.
Duration of Current Illness: 2 days
Current General Condition: Itching, broken skin, excessive discharge
Medical History: Seen by doctors since 2003
Doctor's answer:
Hello, your leukorrhea should be caused by inflammation. When the vagina is inflamed, leukorrhea increases, and its color and nature also change. During bacterial vaginosis, leukorrhea increases, appears yellow, is purulent with a foul odor. During trichomoniasis, it is grayish-yellow, foamy, and thin. During candidiasis, leukorrhea increases, appears white, is creamy, and thick. The red granules on the outer vulva need to be examined to confirm the diagnosis. You should seek medical attention at the gynecology department for examination and treatment as soon as possible.
