What should I do if I have mild vaginal itching?

Vulvar itching is one of the symptoms, and there are many causes. It may be due to some special infection, chronic vulvar malnutrition, allergy to certain drugs, poor living and hygiene habits. Some patients may not have obvious systemic or local causes. This is caused by mental and psychological factors. Therefore, when this symptom occurs, it is necessary to check clearly and prescribe the right medicine. We should also pay attention to some living habits and precautions in our daily lives.

In daily life, you should change your underwear frequently, and the underwear should be made of pure cotton and breathable material; you should wash your vulva every day, but you cannot use very hot water or soap to scrub it to avoid causing damage to the vagina; if you are menstruating, you must keep your vulva clean and change sanitary napkins regularly.

2. Eat less spicy food

Eat less spicy, fried and other foods that are easy to cause inflammation. In addition, they should also be prohibited, otherwise it is easy to cause more serious allergies.

3. Keep a happy mood

Maintain a happy mood, relieve tension and anxiety, and use some sedatives appropriately, which can effectively relieve vulvar itching.

4. Pay attention to hygiene in public places

5. Go to the hospital for examination

If the problem of vulvar itching is severe and there is skin damage or even infection, it is best to go to the hospital for examination and pay attention to the recurrence of the disease on a daily basis. Many people find it difficult to bear the itching on the outside of the vulva, and some will even scratch it. This behavior is very incorrect. Scratching will not reduce the itching, but will aggravate the itching and expand the range. Remember not to wash it with hot water otherwise it will make the itching worse.
