Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling a bit itchy in my private area, and it seems the color is a bit different, a bit whitish. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was leukoplakia of the vulva. I'd like to ask: Which method is effective for treating leukoplakia of the vulva?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Vulvar leukoplakia is caused by inflammatory stimulation, which leads to local nerve and vascular damage. In rare cases, it may result in trichomoniasis, candidiasis, cervical erosion, and other inflammatory conditions, leading to increased vaginal discharge and changes in leukorrhea. Long-term irritation of the vulva can develop into vulvar leukoplakia. Severe cases of leukoplakia may undergo transformation, so applying Mulberry Red Ointment in combination with local red light therapy can enhance drug absorption. Additionally, for severe cases, minimally invasive treatment may be considered.For vulvar leukoplakia patients, in addition to immediate treatment, it is essential to pay attention to self-care. This includes maintaining good hygiene in the private area and avoiding sexual activity during medication. Lastly, female patients are advised to undergo regular follow-up examinations!
