Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling a bit itchy in my private area, and it seems the color is a bit different, a bit whitish. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was leukoplakia of the vulva. I'd like to ask: How much does it cost to treat leukoplakia of the vulva at the hospital?Doctor's answer:
Based on the description of the above content, your condition is considered to be leukoplakia of the vulva, in order to prevent malignant transformation. It is more common in postmenopausal women, primarily characterized by external itching, mainly affecting the labia majora, interlabial sulcus, and posterior labial commissure. Treatment: Maintain cleanliness and dryness of the vulvar skin at all times, stop using soap or other irritating drugs for washing, prevent scratching with hands, avoid spicy or allergenic foods, wear loose and breathable clothing to prevent local moisture, etc. Medications can include hydrocortisone cream, triamcinolone acetonide cream, and hydrocortisone cream. If long-term treatment is ineffective, surgery can be considered. Laser treatment can also be used.
