A member asked:
In vulva smear in my 4yrs old daughter enterococcus was found. does it need therapy? is it dangerous for the kidneys?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Enterococcus: A "vulvar smear" in a 4 yo female which finds "enterococcus" is probably due to poor hygiene ( incomplete wiping after bowel movements), common in children. If there is no diarrhea or abdominal pain, there is probably minimal need to be concerned, but see your pediatrician if other symptoms occur for an exam and treatment.
