Symptoms of vulvitis: Vulvitis is divided into acute and chronic vulvitis.

1. Symptoms of acute vulvitis: The patient first feels discomfort in the vulva, followed by itching and pain, or a burning sensation. At the same time, the skin and mucous membranes of the vulva may swell and become congested to varying degrees. In severe cases, erosions, ulcers, or large areas of eczema may form, accompanied by pain and discomfort during urination. In addition, when folliculitis occurs in the vulva, the vulva may become severely swollen and painful due to the occurrence of abscesses, and then a furuncle may form.

2. Symptoms of chronic vulvitis: Mainly manifested as vulvar itching, skin thickening, roughness, and cracking, which may also be accompanied by pain or pain during urination.

Symptoms of vaginitis: Vaginitis is divided into Trichomonas vaginitis, candidal vaginitis, nonspecific vaginitis, senile vaginitis and bacterial vaginitis.

1. Symptoms of Trichomonas vaginitis: increased leucorrhea, which is milky white or yellow, sometimes purulent, often foamy and smelly. In severe cases, there is bloody leucorrhea, dysuria, frequent urination, and hematuria.

Symptoms of candidal vaginitis: vulvar itching, vulvar and vaginal burning pain, increased leucorrhea with a bean curd-like appearance, sometimes accompanied by frequent urination, frequent urination, dysuria, and pain. During gynecological examination, white membrane-like substances can be seen attached to the inner side of the labia minora and the vaginal mucosa, which can be wiped off to reveal the red and swollen mucosal surface. In the acute stage, damaged erosion surfaces or superficial ulcers can be seen.

3. Symptoms of non-specific vaginitis: a feeling of falling and burning in the vagina, accompanied by pelvic discomfort and general fatigue. Vaginal discharge increases and becomes purulent, serous, and has a foul odor. Because the secretions irritate the urethral opening, it can cause frequent urination, urgency, and pain when urinating.

4. Symptoms of senile vaginitis: increased leucorrhea, yellow and watery in color, purulent and smelly in severe cases, sometimes bloody or accompanied by spotting, itching or burning sensation in the vulva, dryness and pain, distension in the lower abdomen, and when the urethra is affected, there will be frequent, urgent and painful urination.
