Patient's question:
At first, I didn't feel anything uncomfortable, but recently, during intimacy with my husband, I've noticed dryness, and I've also always felt itchy externally. After a check-up, they said it's leukoplakia of the vulva. I'm not very familiar with this condition. Could you please ask: How can leukoplakia of the vulva be relieved?Doctor's answer:
It is possible that if you have psoriasis, you can use non-irritating ointments for topical application, such as 10% boric acid ointment, 10% urea cream, 5% calomel, salicylic acid ointment, etc. Before applying the medication, first wash the scales with hot soapy water. For systemic treatment, you can use procaine intravenous block or intramuscular injection of vitamin B12, oral vitamin C and folic acid, etc. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment can also be adopted. Vaginal leukoplakia is a gynecological disease that is prone to occur. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to maintaining vaginal cleanliness and changing underwear frequently. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery!
