Patient's question:
Suffering from candidal vulvovaginitis, what medicine is effective for relieving external genital itching?Doctor's answer:
Disease Analysis: All cases of candidal vaginitis should be treated by both partners. Continuous treatment for three menstrual cycles is required. Normal vaginal discharge should be checked three times before and after menstruation to confirm cure. Underwear, bed sheets, and other items should be exposed to sunlight and boiled for disinfection to prevent recurrence. Baking soda water can be used to rinse the vagina. Vaginal medication: Clotrimazole suppository, with 7 days as one course of treatment.Advice: Clotrimazole cream or Terbinafine cream can be applied externally to treat vulvitis caused by fungal infection, alleviating symptoms of vulvar itching and pain. Since fungal infection can be transmitted between partners through sexual activity, both can take oral fluconazole.
