What should I do if my vulva is itchy, red, swollen and eroded?

Vulvar itching, redness, swelling, and erosion can be caused by bacterial infection, candidal vaginitis, and Trichomonas vaginitis, and should be treated under the guidance of a doctor according to the specific cause.

1. Bacterial infection:

If the human body is relatively weak and has low immunity, it is difficult to resist severe external environmental stimulation. Once it encounters a polluted environment, it is easy to form bacterial contamination. If you want to treat the symptoms of vulvar itching, swelling, and erosion, you should exercise properly and then improve your immunity to resist bacterial infection.

2. Fungal vaginitis:

Vulvar swelling, itching, and ulcers may be caused by candidal vaginitis. Under the guidance of a doctor, drugs such as miconazole nitrate cream, ketoconazole suppositories, and itraconazole dispersible tablets can be used for treatment. Pay attention to personal hygiene in daily life, keep the vulva dry and clean, and avoid worsening of infection.

3. Trichomonas vaginitis:

Vulvar redness, swelling, itching, and ulcers may also be caused by Trichomonas vaginitis. You can take medication under the guidance of a doctor, such as metronidazole tablets, tinidazole capsules, ornidazole capsules, etc.

It may also be caused by local allergies. Patients are advised to be more careful in their diet, not to drink alcohol, and not to eat spicy food. Eating spicy food causes severe itching, which is not conducive to the excretion of toxins in the body, leading to more serious bacterial infections, and it is difficult to ensure good health.
