What causes small bumps in the vagina?

Vaginitis is a relatively common gynecological disease. Different types of vaginitis will have different clinical manifestations. Some women will find some small lump-like things in the vagina, but because there is no pain, they are always ignored. As the disease develops further, it is likely to endanger the health of the uterus and cause uterine polyps. Therefore, when women find that they have vaginal inflammation, they should seek timely treatment. The following editor will introduce some of the main causes of vaginitis and treatment methods.

1. Often stay up late to work overtime

Vaginitis is also a lifestyle disease. Due to work pressure, frequent social engagements, and staying up late to work overtime, the biological clock will be disrupted, the body's resistance will decrease, and the immunity of the private parts will continue to decrease, allowing harmful bacteria to take advantage of the situation. Even if you pay attention to personal hygiene, if your resistance is poor, it will still induce inflammatory infection. In other words, keeping a regular schedule, combining work and rest, and maintaining a relaxed attitude will help increase your resistance to disease and prevent recurrence of inflammation.

2. Incorrect way of washing with water

For example, using soap or bath gel to clean the vulva, or taking a bath with antibiotics or Chinese medicine will cause the vaginal flora to lose balance. Although it can provide temporary relief, it cannot fundamentally solve the problem and can lead to repeated attacks of fatal vaginitis. The risk is particularly high before and after menstruation. In other words, the washing and care methods must be correct, scientific and reasonable.

3. Sexual hygiene is not up to standard and active protection is ignored

Unclean sexual life can allow foreign bacteria to invade, and the husband's semen is alkaline, which breaks the normal acidic environment of the vagina, leading to repeated attacks of vaginitis. Data show that the recurrence rate of vaginitis caused by unclean sexual life is as high as over 90%. It can be seen that for the sake of health, both parties should pay attention to bathing methods before and after sexual intercourse.

4. Irregular medication

The dosage and course of treatment are insufficient, and you stop taking the medicine without authorization when the symptoms are relieved, or change the medicine frequently when the effect is not good. The correct way is to take the medicine in sufficient dosage and for a full course of treatment under the correct guidance of a doctor, and do not stop taking the medicine when you see improvement, until you are completely cured.

5. Stopping medication on your own initiative

The treatment of vaginitis is easy to be effective. As long as the medication is used properly, the symptoms can be significantly alleviated in two or three days, which can easily give people the illusion that the disease has been cured, so they stop the treatment early and no longer continue the medication. In fact, there will be residual bacteria that have not been eliminated. When the body's resistance is poor around the next menstruation, it will come back again, resulting in repeated attacks of inflammation. Repeated attacks of inflammation not only make the disease more difficult to cure, but also bacteria can easily spread and cause pelvic inflammation, and even cause serious consequences such as infertility. Therefore, you must follow the doctor's instructions when taking medication, strictly observe the course of treatment, and stop taking the medication under the guidance of a doctor only after 3 follow-up examinations.

Therefore, when you find any discomfort in your vagina, it is best to go to a regular hospital for examination and treatment. You should also pay attention to vaginal hygiene, wash the vulva with clean water every day, and change your underwear in time. When wearing clothes, you should try to keep them loose and comfortable to reduce friction on the vulva. You should also eat less irritating foods.
