There is a small meat ball next to the vulva

The genitals are the part of the body most prone to problems for women, and deserve attention and care from women of different ages. Moreover, there are various gynecological problems, and female friends can only take preventive measures if they know more about them. The most common phenomenon is that small lumps easily grow next to the vulva. It is likely that the patient has been infected by bacteria due to poor hygiene. When treating the disease, do not think that you can stop the treatment once it is healed, as this will greatly increase the recurrence rate.

What is the reason for a small meat ball growing next to the vulva?

1. Bad hygiene habits: Not paying attention to the local cleanliness of the vulva, long-term stimulation by sebum, sweat, menstrual blood, vaginal secretions, or immersion in urine and feces can cause pimples on the vulva.

2. Sanitary napkins during menstruation and non-breathable synthetic underwear at other times can induce itching due to long-term accumulation of moisture and heat in the local area.

3. Special infections: Candida vaginitis and Trichomonas vaginitis are the most common causes of vulvar itching.

4. Vulvar squamous cell hyperplasia: The main symptom is severe itching, accompanied by whitening of the vulvar skin.

5. Drug allergy or chemical irritation: Soap, condoms, benzalkonium bromide, etc. can cause contact or allergic dermatitis due to direct irritation or allergy, resulting in symptoms such as vulvar itching.

Points to note during treatment:

Keep the vulva clean and dry, especially during menstruation, pregnancy and postpartum period, wash the vulva and change underwear every day. Do not wear synthetic underwear or tight pants, wear cotton underwear. When taking a local sitz bath, pay attention to the solution concentration, temperature, time, and precautions. People with vulvar itching should cut their nails and wash their hands frequently, and avoid scratching their skin to prevent ulceration and infection, which may lead to secondary bacterial infection. Do not use irritating soaps, medicines, or water that is too cold or too hot to clean the vulva, so as not to disrupt the acid-base balance of the vagina.

Private cleaning care for gynecological inflammation:

Use some wash to clean your vulva regularly. The leucorrhea that flows out of the private parts adheres to the skin of the vulva, and also contains sweat, urine and other components, which can easily breed bacteria and cause symptoms such as vulva itching. When choosing a lotion, try to choose one with some Chinese herbal ingredients, such as those containing Sophora flavescens, Stemona bulbus, Cnidium monnieri and other Chinese medicinal materials. It can quickly inhibit and kill pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, mold, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and has the effects of cleaning, moisturizing and sterilization. It is very effective in preventing the early treatment of gynecological inflammation.

It is best for married women to take a bath every day and pay attention to cleaning their private parts, especially before and after sexual intercourse. It is best for both husband and wife to clean the perineum. Since sexual life changes the microenvironment, it can also bring in some bacteria, leading to gynecological inflammation. If it is inconvenient to take a bath every day, you should also wash your vulva.

Daily health care for gynecological inflammation:

Minor gynecological inflammation does not necessarily require medication to be cured. As long as you correct your wrong habits in time, the inflammation will gradually disappear. Maintaining good habits can also maintain your long-term health.

Changing and washing underwear frequently, choosing cotton underwear with good breathability, not having sex when there is inflammation, using condoms when having sex, changing sanitary napkins frequently during menstruation, and seeking medical attention in time when problems are discovered are all ways to avoid inflammation. At the same time, female friends should also maintain a comfortable mood, which is of great benefit to their health.

Misunderstandings in the treatment of gynecological inflammation:

1. Treatment is not in accordance with the course of treatment

Most women who self-medicate stop taking the medication when their symptoms improve. There is a relatively strict concept of "treatment course" in the treatment of gynecological inflammation. However, many patients do not adhere to the treatment course and do not "pursue the enemy with all their strength", and the fungal infection will most likely rebound. If the treatment is stopped on and off, it is easy to cause gynecological inflammation to remain uncured for a long time, and the bacteria can easily spread to the internal reproductive organs, causing more serious consequences.

2. Too common to be ignored

In recent years, the population suffering from gynecological inflammation has tended to be younger, and the patient population has gradually spread to unmarried young women. Because it is "too common", it is often ignored by patients. If gynecological inflammation is not treated, it will further spread to the entire reproductive system and become a stubborn disease. In addition, it may also cause "cross infection", with multiple organs (pelvis, uterus, appendages, vagina) becoming ill at the same time, causing repeated inflammation.
