Girl's urine area is red and painful

Many women suffer from vaginitis due to poor environmental hygiene, but can babies get vaginitis? Babies may get vaginitis because their ovaries are not yet perfect, so their vaginal mucosa is thinner. The inner and outer openings of the vagina are adjacent to the anus and urethra, which are easily damp and cold and infected by bacteria, causing inflammation. Vulvitis is very likely to occur when the private skin is abraded or scratched and there is environmental pollution. If a girl's urinary area is red and painful, it may be due to vaginitis.

Girls have redness and pain around the urinary area. This condition is common in infant vaginitis and vulvitis. The main reasons are:

First, due to the anatomical characteristics of children, their private parts are poorly developed and cannot cover the urethral opening and vaginal vestibule, making it easy for bacteria to invade.

Second, the estrogen level in the baby's vagina is low, the resistance is poor, and it is very easy to be infected by other bacteria.

Third, the baby's poor living habits, unclean private parts, polluted defecation environment, vulva injury or pinworm infection can all cause inflammation.

Fourth, foreign objects are placed in the vagina by mistake. Children may place erasers or other foreign objects in the vagina out of curiosity, which may lead to secondary infection.

The key to solve:

First, keep the vulva clean and dry, reduce friction, and choose appropriate oral antibiotics for pathogens or use a plastic straw to drop antibiotics into the vagina, or wipe the private parts.

Second, symptomatic treatment is required. Those with pinworms should be given deworming treatment, foreign objects in the vagina should be removed immediately, and those with adhesions of the labia minora can apply estrogen ointment, then loosen the adhesions and apply anti-inflammatory ointment.

For vaginal inflammation in babies, a soft and thin sterilized catheter can be gently inserted into the patient's vagina, and then a sterilizing solution with an appropriate effective concentration can be used to flush out the inflammatory secretions in the vagina. This can be done once a day. Baby vaginitis can be treated by private bathing. This method is to clean the baby's vagina with some anti-inflammatory medicines. This method is more suitable for babies with mild symptoms of vaginitis. This method can effectively eliminate inflammation.
