I'm really struggling with this. Could you please tell me how to treat leukoplakia of the vulva for the best results?Doctor's answer:
Hello, for the treatment of leukoplakia of the vulva, it is necessary to cut off the inflammation of the leukoplakia, repair the vulvar skin damage, completely restore the normal function of vulvar skin tissue cells, stabilize the nutritional status of its microvessels and nerve endings, change the local tissue growth environment, promote the regeneration of local tissues, gradually and completely eliminate the leukoplakia. It is important to maintain the cleanliness and dryness of the vulva at all times, stop using drugs or soaps with strong irritation to wash the vulva, avoid wearing non-breathable synthetic underwear, and avoid eating spicy and easily allergenic foods.
