Patient's question:

What foods should vulvar leukoplakia patients avoid?

Doctor's answer:

Vaginal leukoplakia refers to a disease characterized by tissue degeneration and changes in pigmentation in the skin and mucous membranes of the vulva and surrounding areas due to nutritional deficiencies. The typical symptoms of vaginal leukoplakia include white patches on the vulvar skin, vulvar itching, and a burning sensation in the vulva. Treatment involves oral Chinese medicine to regulate internal balance, support the body's fundamental health, correct endocrine disorders, and enhance immune function. Vaginal leukoplakia is a gynecological condition prone to recurrence. During medication, women should pay close attention to self-care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients avoid sexual activity and maintain good hygiene during treatment. Finally, we wish all female patients a speedy recovery!
