Suggest Remedy For White Discolouration In Genital Area

Candidiasis require anti-fungal topical application
Detailed Answer:
Hello ma'am and welcome.
Thank you for writing to us.
I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. In my opinion, the cause for such a presentation is most probably candidiasis (yeast/fungal infection). It occurs in regions which are usually moist for long durations through the day.
Here are my recommendations:
+Use clotrimazole cream to be applied over the affected region (After cleaning it and drying it) twice daily for 10 days (available over-the-counter)
+Shower twice daily
+Dry off well enough after your showers
+Change your inner wear at least twice daily
+Take sitz baths with epsom salt in it 2-5 times a day
+Do not leave the region wet after doing your business in the toilet
+If you live in a warm or hot place, then make sure you are always wearing loose comfortable clothing and are in a well ventilated cool room
I hope you find my response helpful. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I would be more than happy to help.
Best wishes.


Nothing serious, but we need to stop keeping the region moist
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
The issue is not too serious, and yes the colour will return to normal, provided that the infection is adequately treated, and the source is completely removed (source being the region being constantly moist).
The condition cannot get any worse, as this is how it peaks, but if the treatment is ineffective due to inadequate use or due to continuation of exposure to the source, then the skin discolouration and dryness can spread to the surrounding regions. You will need to discuss with your doctor how to treat the urinary incontinence, so we can get you rid of this minor complication.
Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I am always here to help.
Best wishes.
