Question
What’s causing my 4-year-old daughter’s red vulva with an unusual smell?
Answer
Hello, a 4-year-old girl’s red, swollen, and itchy vulva may be due to vulvitis caused by bacterial infection. It is recommended to use potassium permanganate solution for sitz baths and to complement this with oral azithromycin or cefalexin antibiotics. At the same time, pay attention to maintaining personal hygiene to prevent the spread of infection.
