Patient's question:
I am a 55-year-old woman who has noticed this symptom for a long time, but the condition has not improved. How can I differentiate between vulvar leukoplakia and this condition?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described, it is very likely to be caused by leukoplakia of the vulva. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a thorough examination and confirm the cause of the disease for targeted treatment. Leukoplakia of the vulva mainly manifests as the recurrence of white patches locally, itching in the genital area, swelling, and ulcers. Severe patients may also experience vulvar fibrosis or expansion. This disease is very difficult to cure, and the only option is to control the progression of the condition.
