Patient's question:
How to treat leukoplakia of the vulva, recently I've been feeling itchy down there, and it got scratched open, it hurts a lot, and it's really uncomfortable. I went to the hospital for a check-up and they said it's leukoplakia of the vulva. I'm really troubled.Doctor's answer:
Hello, for the treatment of leukoplakia of the vulva, it is necessary to cut off the inflammation of the leukoplakia, repair 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, and gradually completely eliminate white spots. During the healing process, attention should be paid to nursing management, combining treatment and care, temporarily suspending sexual life, and maintaining vulvar cleanliness at all times. Do not use some market cleaning agents for wiping. When itching is severe, protective ointment can be applied. Try to control yourself and avoid scratching. Do not wear tight or poorly breathable synthetic underwear. Eat less irritating foods, etc. Vulvar leukoplakia is an gynecological disease that is prone to occur. During the treatment, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of care.
