What to do if the clitoris is itchy and swollen?

Clitoris itching and redness is a common gynecological disease among women. Clitoris itching and redness is generally caused by unclean sexual life or lack of attention to hygiene. Clitoris itching and redness not only affects women's reproductive health, but also easily leads to some physical diseases. It needs early treatment. You can usually use lotion to clean it and pay more attention to private hygiene.

The first is chronic local irritation, such as leucorrhea, urine irritation, local uncleanliness, dirt and other local irritations, which cause itching.

The second is suffering from vulvar diseases or female inflammation, such as vulvar varicose veins, vulvar leukoplakia, menopausal vulvar itching, vulvar skin diseases and pubic lice. First of all, you should keep the vulva clean and dry, and avoid scratching. Sexual intercourse is prohibited during treatment. It is not advisable to eat spicy food or drink alcohol.

When more serious symptoms occur, the shortcut is to go to the gynecology department for vaginal douching, and then they will pour the powder of nystatin, a red medicine pellet, into the vagina.

The third type is medical diseases, such as vitamin deficiency (especially A and B), diabetes, gout, jaundice, leukemia and other medical diseases. Certain systemic allergic diseases such as drug rashes and urticaria, as well as allergies in some people to soaps, vulvar douches, hemorrhoid creams, contraceptive gels, contraceptive devices, etc., can also cause itching. Some neurotic patients may also experience symptoms of psychogenic clitoral pruritus.

The fifth possibility is vulvar inflammation. The resistance of a woman's vagina will weaken before and after menstruation, so she will get infected. It is recommended to go to the hospital to check the routine of leucorrhea, get treatment early, and recover soon.
