Question
My 3-year-old and 4-year-old daughters both have a green slimy discharge in their underwear and when they wipe. They both have a very strong odor. What could this be? Their doctor doesn't know what this is or what to do.
Answer
|
It's difficult to determine what the green malodorous discharge is caused by. However, your daughters may have an infection or vaginal bacterial imbalance. Please take them to a family medicine physician to have this evaluated and treated ASAP.
