What is the reason for the itching of the external genitalia and the presence of small red spots?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Vaginal itching may be caused by a bacterial infection leading to vaginitis. It is recommended to visit a hospital for a discharge test to determine the specific bacteria causing the infection and receive targeted treatment. It is advised to follow the doctor's instructions and take oral anti-inflammatory antibiotics. The external genital area can be cleaned with a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution. Severe inflammation may affect fertility.
