What should patients with Bartholinitis pay attention to?

The cause of Bartholinitis is mainly bacterial infection, the most common of which are gonococci and Escherichia coli. It has a certain connection with sexually transmitted diseases. In most cases, it is a mixed infection, which means that several pathogens act together. Bartholinitis during the acute period is relatively special and also relatively common. In addition, because it is relatively common and prone to recurrence, patients should pay attention to certain care. The following are the nursing measures:

Nursing points

1. Keep the vulva clean. Do not have sex during menstruation and postpartum period. Use sterilized sanitary napkins during menstruation to prevent infection.

2. During the acute stage, you should stay in bed to avoid pain. You can apply cold compress locally to relieve pain.

3. You can choose to take a sitz bath with a 1:5000 potassium permanganate solution for 15 to 20 minutes each time, twice a day. You can also choose oral antibiotics according to the pathogen, and you must take them according to the course of treatment.

4. Pay attention to your diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, eat a light diet, and eat more nutritious and easily digestible foods.

5. Perform incision drainage and ostomy, change the dressing once a day, and scrub the vulva with 1:20 iodine stock solution twice a day. When the secretion decreases, 1:5000 potassium permanganate can be used for sitz bath to promote healing, but attention should be paid to the concentration, temperature and time of the solution.

Experts point out: Under normal circumstances, as long as you can receive professional treatment, it will basically not be complicated again. The reason for recurrence is basically due to improper treatment. For example, blindly using antibiotics for treatment can indeed have good therapeutic effects in the short term, but the recurrence rate is also very obvious.
