Will vaginitis in children cause low-grade fever?

Children's vaginitis generally refers to infant vulvovaginitis, and low fever is generally low fever. Whether infant vulvovaginitis will cause low fever should be judged according to the severity of the disease. If the inflammation is mild, it generally will not cause low fever. If the inflammation is severe, it may cause low fever.

1. Will not cause low fever:

Because the skin and mucous membrane of the vulva of infants are relatively thin and the estrogen level is relatively low, if personal hygiene is not maintained regularly, it may lead to clinical manifestations such as increased vaginal discharge, local swelling of the vulva, vulvar itching, frequent urination, urgency, and pain when urinating, but it usually does not cause low fever.

2. It can cause low fever:

Because the distance between the vagina and the urethra is very close, if the disease is not treated in time, it may also involve the urethra in severe cases, leading to clinical manifestations such as red urethral orifice, frequent urination, urgency, and pain when urinating. Aggravated inflammation may also lead to systemic symptoms such as low fever, fatigue, crying, and loss of appetite. So if the inflammation is more serious, it may cause low fever.

When children suffer from infantile vulvovaginitis, parents should strengthen their care for their children. They can wash the vulva with warm water every day, change underwear frequently, keep the local area dry and clean, and help the body recover. If necessary, they can take amoxicillin granules, cephalosporin granules, roxithromycin granules and other drugs under the guidance of a doctor to help reduce local inflammatory reactions.
