Dietary taboos for candidal vaginitis

Candidiasis vaginitis refers to the inflammation of the female vagina caused by infection with fungi. The female vagina is very fragile. If infected, it will show various symptoms of discomfort, such as pain when urinating and vaginal itching, which will have a great impact on the health of the female vagina. Patients with candidal vaginitis should pay attention to dietary taboos. So, what are the dietary taboos for candidal vaginitis?

Candidal vaginitis is a common gynecological inflammation, and it is easy to recur. Therefore, in addition to taking active treatment measures, patients with candidal vaginitis should also pay attention to their diet. Let's take a look at what Jiuzhou experts pointed out. Clinically, the symptoms of candidal vaginitis include increased leucorrhea, itching and burning of the vulva and vagina, painful urination, redness and edema around the vulva, and various epidermal changes. Very shallow vesicular papules may occur in groups. Eczematous erosions may also form, which are limited to the vulva or extend to the perineum, around the anus and femoral genital folds, and even to the inner and outer thighs, which is completely similar to acute or subacute eczema. The mucosa near the labia and clitoris is thickened, and the skin surfaces that contact each other are flushed and eroded. Some may cause tiny white pustules, and in severe cases, ulcers, vulvar pain and local lymphadenopathy may occur. Women with candidal vaginitis should arrange their diet properly because the disease has strict dietary restrictions. According to clinical experience, the dietary taboos for candidal vaginitis mainly include:

2. Avoid seafood that may cause irritation. Fishy foods, such as shrimp, mandarin fish, black fish, hairtail, yellow croaker, crab and other aquatic products can promote damp heat, aggravate vulvar itching after eating, and are not conducive to the disappearance of inflammation, so they should be avoided.

3. Avoid sweet and greasy food. Greasy foods such as lard, fatty pork, butter, mutton fat, cream, etc.; high-sugar foods such as candy, desserts, chocolate, cream cakes, etc., these foods help to increase moisture and heat, which will increase the secretion of leucorrhea and affect the treatment effect.

4. Avoid spicy food. Spicy foods include chili peppers, ginger, onions, garlic, etc. Eating too much of them can easily cause dryness and heat, which can cause heat and toxins to accumulate in the internal organs, resulting in symptoms such as swollen and painful gums, mouth sores, short and red urine, burning sensation in the anus, and itchy and painful front and back of the vulva, thus aggravating the symptoms of this disease.

5. Pay attention to dietary nutrition. It is advisable to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits to keep bowel movements smooth; drink more water; and prevent urinary tract infections. Eating more foods that have the effect of dispelling dampness, such as winter melon, watermelon, red bean, etc., is beneficial to the recovery of this disease.

Warm reminder: The above are the issues that patients with candidal vaginitis need to pay attention to. Candidal vaginitis is very harmful to human health.
