Patient's question:
Lately, I've been feeling itchy in my private area, and it even got scratched open, 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 troubled. Could you please ask: How should the treatment for vulvar leukoplakia be carried out and resolved?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the treatment of leukoplakia of the vulva often adopts a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. If there is severe itching in the inflamed area of leukoplakia of the vulva, it is recommended to use decocted Chinese herbal medicine to steam-wash the vulvar area once or twice a day. During the treatment of leukoplakia of the vulva, it should be noted that when the condition improves and itching subsides, medication should not be stopped abruptly to prevent recurrence. Instead, the frequency of medication can be gradually increased, such as every other day or twice a week.
