Itchy and painful in the vagina

Patient's question:

I am a mother of a 3-month-old baby. I haven't had any sexual activity before, and it's not been 3 months yet, so it should be fine. I had one instance, and after that, I've been feeling itchy and painful at the vaginal opening, and urination is also a bit painful. Is this inflammation? What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

The vagina is painful and itchy, and there is also pain during urination. It is mainly caused by gynecological infections leading to gynecological inflammation. It could be vaginitis accompanied by urethritis, often caused by pathogenic infections. Further examination is required for a specific diagnosis.
Advice: Go to the hospital for a detailed examination. Based on the results, appropriate medications should be selected for systemic and local treatment. Additionally, pay attention to daily regulation. Avoid eating raw, cold, or irritating foods in your diet. Adjust your sleep schedule and maintain a regular routine. Also, maintain good personal hygiene to prevent the occurrence of other infections.
