Vaginitis

Symptoms and hazards

As the name suggests, candidal vaginitis is caused by fungal infection and is more common in young girls, pregnant women, diabetic patients, and postmenopausal patients who have been treated with large doses of estrogen. Patients with candidal vaginitis present with symptoms such as increased leucorrhea, itching and burning sensation of the vulva and vagina, painful urination and painful sexual intercourse. There is often redness and edema around the vulva, and the epidermis changes in various ways. Very shallow vesicles and papules may occur; eczematous erosions may also form; some may cause tiny white pustules, and ulcers may occur in severe cases.

Treatment

(1) Topical application of medication

Commonly used medicines such as pepper, Glauber's salt, cinnamon twig, fennel, etc. are wrapped in gauze and boiled. Water is added to soak the medicine and placed on the lower abdomen at a temperature that the skin can tolerate. A hot water bottle can be used to keep it warm. Take twice a day, each time for about 30 minutes, and each dose can be used 3 times. It can treat gynecological lower abdominal pain and promote the absorption of inflammatory masses.

(2) Chinese medicine fumigation

The skin is the largest organ in the human body. In addition to its protective function against external invasion, it also has many other functions such as secretion, absorption, penetration, excretion, and sensation. The traditional Chinese medicine fumigation therapy "Zhulin Temple Women's Medicine·Shuyin Qumei Powder" utilizes this characteristic of the skin to allow the drug to be absorbed through the skin surface, penetrate the stratum corneum and be transported through the dermis to enter the blood circulation to exert its efficacy. The absorption and penetration of the skin is related to humidity. (3) Rectal suppository

Taking the commonly used therapeutic drug Kangfu Anti-inflammatory Suppository as an example, the treatment of gynecological inflammation generally requires 2-4 courses of medication. The use of rectal suppositories can reduce trauma to the body and avoid irreparable damage to the body caused by surgery. It can also benignly stimulate and promote local blood circulation, improve the nutritional status of tissues, enhance metabolism, and facilitate the absorption and disappearance of inflammation.

prevention

1. Do not over-clean the vagina

Under normal circumstances, our vagina will maintain the balance of acidity and alkalinity by itself. Try not to clean the vagina with detergents or disinfectants, or even scrub it excessively. This may not only disrupt the balance of the vaginal environment, but may also cause vaginal damage. So usually just rinse it with warm water.

2. Wear breathable cotton pants

Try to wear ventilated cotton underwear and underwear to keep dry. If you don’t have much secretion, try not to use sanitary pads. If you do use them, be sure to change them frequently to avoid bacterial growth.

3. Eat less irritating food

Under normal circumstances, our natural immune system will automatically deal with these invading bacteria, so we should have a healthy and balanced diet, eat less irritating foods, and allow the immune system to function normally.
