Patient's question:
I have been suffering from leukoplakia of the vulva for a while. I have been treated before, but the effect is not very good. What should the patient do? What is the effective method for treating leukoplakia of the vulva?Doctor's answer:
First and foremost, it is important to maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia. Use warm water to cleanse the external genitalia twice a day, and avoid using medications as detergents to irritate the area. If cervical inflammation or vaginal inflammation is present, seek early treatment to reduce the stimulation of leukorrhea on the skin of the external genitalia. If you notice changes such as white skin, itching, or increased leukorrhea, it is important to undergo a thorough examination. If necessary, a pathological section may be taken to confirm the diagnosis. Even if the examination results are negative, continue to monitor for symptom progression. In addition to symptomatic treatment for leukoplakia of the external genitalia, patients should also pay attention to their diet, such as eating a balanced diet and maintaining a positive mood.
