Patient's question:
Lately, I've been feeling itchy down there, 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 can one recover from leukoplakia of the vulva?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 microvessels and nerve endings, change the local tissue growth environment, promote the regeneration of local tissues, and gradually completely eliminate the leukoplakia. It is recommended to pay attention to nursing and management during the self-healing process, combine treatment and nursing, temporarily suspend sexual life, and maintain vulvar cleanliness at all times. When itching is severe, protective ointment can be applied. Try to control yourself from scratching as much as possible, do not wear tight or poorly breathable synthetic underwear, and eat less irritating foods.
