Patient's question:
One and a half years ago, it was found that the child's underwear had yellow-green, yellow-green secretions. When checked at the hospital, it was diagnosed as bacterial vaginosis. The doctor recommended soaking in potassium permanganate, but it had no effect. The secretions worsened, and there were also itchy symptoms in the groin.Doctor's answer:
Medical Analysis: Hello~ Your child's symptoms are caused by a fungal infection~Recommendations: It is best not to use topical medications for the child. It is recommended to take fluconazole intravenously at the hospital for treatment. The little girl should clean her external genitalia every day, change her underwear daily, and wipe from front to back after defecation to avoid fecal contamination of the external genitalia. If the parent has candidal vaginitis, hygiene items (bathtubs, towels, bath mats, etc.) should be separated from the child to prevent cross-infection.
