Question

A four-and-a-half-year-old girl has redness around her vulva, with some discharge that I can’t describe its exact color. After her underwear dries, it’s yellow. She often says it hurts when she pees. Previous treatment and effects: She has been washed with clean water frequently, but the effect is not significant. What kind of help do you need: I hope the redness around the vulva and the discharge disappear, and the pain during urination is also relieved. Thank you.

Answer

  1. Applying Sichuan pepper oil. After the baby’s vulva becomes red, parents indeed feel very worried. At this time, parents should do their best to take good care of the baby, helping the baby to get away from the harm of the disease as soon as possible. In terms of treatment, applying Sichuan pepper oil can be helpful for symptom relief after a period of time. Some babies may see their symptoms improve after applying it.
  2. Medication treatment. Vulvar redness in babies may occasionally occur without medication treatment, but if it happens frequently, medication is necessary. It is recommended to follow the doctor’s advice under medical guidance for specific medication for the baby. It is important not to use medication arbitrarily, as this can be harmful to the baby’s health. Additionally, during medication use, proper cleaning and care of the red area should be maintained.
