Hello,
Red brown vaginal discharge is indicative of low grade vaginal infection most likely.
Guidelines for better outcome:
- Drink more liquids
- Cranberry sachets
- Vaginal hygiene
- Regularly change tampons
- Wear loose, clean, cotton inner wears
- Avoid vaginal sex if active
Follow up after 2 days about the progress and discuss the future course of action to cure at best possible manner.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
