Patient's question:
I have been suffering from leukoplakia of the vulva for over a year. How should leukoplakia of the vulva be treated? Is there anything to pay attention to in daily life?Doctor's answer:
Vaginal leukoplakia refers to localized or diffuse white patches on the skin of the external female genitalia, which can spread to the inner thighs, perineum, and anus but rarely affect the urethral opening or vestibule. Symptoms include itching in the genital area, dry skin, thickening and whitening, loss of elasticity, and even shrinkage and ulcers, accompanied by pain and a burning sensation. In daily life, attention should be paid to adjusting life stress and emotions, always maintaining a positive attitude and cheerful mood. In this regard, family members of patients should actively cooperate to help them build confidence in overcoming the disease.
