Patient's question:
Vaginitis has a history of three or four years, with no improvement despite recurring episodes. It causes external genital itching, internal heat and dryness, pain during intercourse, and minimal vaginal discharge.Doctor's answer:
Hello, considering you may have a vaginal infection, it is recommended to undergo a routine vaginal discharge test to determine the specific type of vaginal infection for symptomatic treatment. Keep the external genital area clean and dry. Avoid scratching, hot water bathing, and the use of soap. When infected, use potassium permanganate solution for sitz baths. Underwear should be breathable and loose-fitting. Avoid alcohol and spicy or allergenic foods.
