Three days ago I felt itchy down there and it still itches.

Patient's question:

I have never had a situation like this before. Three days ago, I felt itchy in the external genital area and noticed small bumps near the vaginal opening. My husband and I also had some small red spots after our intimacy two days ago. We are quite careful about personal hygiene, so I don't know how we could have gotten this condition. I used a wash to clean it, which helped a bit, and I also applied an ointment for eczema, but it didn't seem to work very well.

Doctor's answer:

Available options: Soak in a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution or a 4% boric acid solution, 2-3 times daily. Alternatively, you can use traditional Chinese medicine for itching, such as: Gardeniae Fructus, Sophora Flavescens, Cnidium Fructus, Poria, etc., decocted to wash the external genital area.
