Precautions for the treatment of vulvar itching

1. Don’t overuse medication

The medication must be used in moderation. If too much is used, it will cause damage to the vaginal mucosa or vulvar skin mucosa and produce an itchy feeling. Moreover, over-reliance on drugs and excessive use will affect the growth of normal vaginal flora, causing them to be damaged and unable to recover, making it easy for candidal vaginitis to occur again or lead to bacterial vaginosis. This is a practice that is not worth the risk, so you must be careful when using medication!

2. Do not over-clean and disinfect

Some people mistakenly believe that the vulva is a dirty place, and they are accustomed to washing it with soap, hot water, cleaning liquid or disinfectant every night. They also feel that they feel very comfortable after washing. In fact, there are also disadvantages to doing this. The vulva is not dirtier than the mouth, nose and other parts of the body. Excessive cleaning and disinfection for the sake of comfort will cause the vulva's flora to be imbalanced, making the area more susceptible to inflammation, making the itching more severe, and even causing other diseases, such as perianal inflammation and cystitis.

3. You can use vaginal suppositories

To treat candidal vaginitis, you can use antifungal vaginal suppositories. Just insert it into the vagina and use it for ten consecutive days to be cured. But before taking the medicine every day, it is best to use

4. Stop taking drugs containing "pine"

Patients with vulvar itching must stop using all pine-containing medications. When you first stop taking the medication, you may feel more vaginal itching. You can stack a thick layer of cold towels and apply a wet compress to the vulva. Rinse the towel every three minutes without letting it get too hot. Continue to apply the cold compress until the itching subcutaneously subsides. In this way, the disease can be cured without any medicine.
