Fever as a symptom of vaginal mycosis?

Fever is not a classic symptom of vaginal mycosis. As a rule, fever means that the body has to fight an inflammation, which is usually not the case with vaginal mycosis. If skin changes in the intimate area occur in combination with fever, a medical examination should also be carried out with regard to infection with genital herpes or other viruses and bacteria. Nevertheless, it cannot be ruled out with certainty that a vaginal mycosis infection is not accompanied by an increase in temperature.

Burning as a symptom of vaginal mycosis?

Another possible symptom of vaginal mycosis is a burning sensation in the genital area. Some women notice this when urinating on the toilet, which can lead to it being misinterpreted as a sign of a urinary tract infection or a bladder infection and possibly even an antibiotic therapy is initiated accordingly, in this case ineffective. Other women feel the burning sensation independently of going to the toilet. In any case, however, a burning sensation is an indication of an inflammation or fungal infection and thus an illness in need of treatment, which justifies a visit to the doctor.

Diarrhea as a symptom of vaginal mycosis?

A connection between vaginal mycosis and the occurrence of diarrhea is very unlikely. This can be explained by the fact that the two diseases affect two different, independent organ systems. Diarrhoea can have many causes (e.g. food intoxication, gastrointestinal infections or food intolerances), but according to the current state of medical knowledge, vaginal mycosis is not one of them.

Back pain as a symptom of vaginal mycosis?

Abdominal or back pain associated with the typical fungal discharge (yellowish, unpleasant smelling and crumbly) is a possible but rare symptom of vaginal mycosis. However, since there is usually an improvement in back pain with successful treatment of the vaginal mycosis, these usually do not require separate drug or physiotherapeutic treatment. If the back pain persists despite treatment of the fungus, it is possible to relieve it by a limited intake of a light painkiller, such as Ibuprofen 400mg. However, this should only be done for a short period of time. If the pain persists for a longer period, it is recommended to consult a doctor.
