Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling itchy in my private area, and I even scratched it, which is very painful and uncomfortable. I went to the hospital for a check-up, and they said I have leukoplakia of the vulva. I'm really struggling with this. Could you please tell me: How long does it take to treat leukoplakia of the vulva?Doctor's answer:
Hello, friend, there is no exact time to relieve leukoplakia of the vulva. Due to individual differences in patient symptoms, the treatment course required may also vary. However, as long as proper care is taken in daily life, it can help.1. In daily life, wear loose, breathable underwear and pants, with pure cotton products as the basis, and avoid wearing synthetic fiber underwear such as polyester;
2. It is necessary to keep the affected area dry, ventilated, and cool;
3. Since the female vulva has self-cleaning properties, it is generally sufficient to clean the vulva 2-3 times a week. When cleaning, do not use any detergent (as it is usually alkaline), only use warm water to clean. The water temperature must never be too hot.
