What to do if a woman has vulvar swelling and pain?

1. Make all preparations to ensure smooth treatment.

2. After fumigating with the liquid medicine, wipe the affected area dry with a soft towel and avoid wind.

3. When the outside temperature is high, the fumigation solution should generally not be left overnight to prevent it from deteriorating.

4. During the treatment period, it is recommended to get adequate rest, avoid spicy food, and avoid overwork.

5. The amount of water added to decoction should be determined according to the situation. It should not be too much or too little. Too much water will result in too low concentration, while too little water will result in insufficient heat, both of which will affect the efficacy.

6. The temperature of the medicine liquid should be appropriate, not too high to avoid burns, nor too low to affect the efficacy. Once a burn occurs, treatment should be suspended and the wound should be applied with medicine to prevent infection.

7. Do not flush the vagina at will to avoid destroying the vagina's resistance. If it is a fungal infection, the couple needs to be treated together. Avoid sexual intercourse during treatment, disinfect underwear and toiletries every day, and check again after each menstruation. Three consecutive negative results indicate a cure. If there is cervical erosion, early cervical cancer should also be ruled out to avoid delaying diagnosis and treatment.
