What medicine to use for lower body itching

Girls are quite sensitive about the feeling of itching in their lower body, but if a girl cannot keep her lower body dry and hygienic for a long time, it is easy for her to get a fungal infection, which can lead to diseases such as vaginitis. Therefore, when girls experience itching in their genitals, they must go to the hospital and cooperate with the doctor's treatment, so as to effectively avoid the occurrence of more serious gynecological diseases. When itching occurs, what medicine can effectively relieve it?

1. What medicine should girls use for vaginal itching?

Pay attention to strengthening the hygiene of the vulva. Patients with symptoms of vulvar itching must remember not to scratch the itch directly with their hands to prevent inducing a larger infection and affecting the treatment effect. The correct treatment method is to use a special cleaning solution to clean it, such as Ganlin Lotion, Compound Sophora Flavescentis Lotion, Huangkui Lotion, etc.

2. Symptoms of vaginal itching

The itching is mostly located in the clitoris, labia minora, and may also affect the labia majora, perineum and even perianal skin lesions. It is often paroxysmal or continuous, and usually worsens at night. Unexplained vulvar itching usually only occurs in women of childbearing age or postmenopausal women, and often affects the entire vulva, but may also be limited to a certain part or one side of the vulva. Although the itching is very severe and even unbearable, the local skin and mucous membranes appear normal, or there are only scratches due to excessive scratching.

3. How to check vaginal itching

Generally, if you go to the hospital, they will definitely ask about your medical history in detail, such as how long the itching has lasted, how severe it is, how much vaginal discharge there is, the nature of the vaginal discharge, and whether it has any relationship with menstruation. Sometimes, due to the stimulation of menstrual blood and some allergies to sanitary napkins, some people will experience vulvar discomfort in the second half of menstruation. Trichomonas vaginitis often occurs after menstruation.

During diagnosis, detailed medical history and treatment process are inquired, and systemic and local examinations are carefully performed. If necessary, vaginal secretion culture, drug sensitivity test or local pathological examination are performed.

How to care for girls' vaginal itching

1. Patients with vulvar itching should pay attention to menstrual hygiene and use qualified sanitary napkins. Avoid sexual intercourse during treatment. If necessary, both husband and wife can receive treatment at the same time.

2. Patients with vulvar itching should pay attention to vulvar cleanliness. Special washing utensils should be prepared at ordinary times, with "one person, one basin, one towel, and one water". First, put the small square towel in the basin and boil it for 15 minutes, then let it cool before use. Before washing the vulva, you should cut your nails short and clean your hands. After washing, clean the utensils and dry them in the sun.

3. Patients with vulvar itching should not eat spicy or irritating foods, quit smoking and limit alcohol, and avoid using irritating soaps, soaps, and shower gels. Avoid scratching. When the itching is unbearable, you can divert your attention, such as listening to music, watching TV, outdoor activities, etc.

4. Clothes, bed sheets and quilts used by patients with vulvar itching should be used and washed separately to prevent transmission within the family, especially to protect infant girls or girls from infection.

5. When you are sick, you should not be ashamed to talk about your illness or avoid seeing a doctor. You should not "seek medical treatment at random" or follow advertisements and take medicine without authorization, which will cover up the lesion, affect diagnosis, and delay treatment. After the diagnosis is clear, you must take the medicine under the guidance of a doctor.
