Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling a bit itchy in my private area, and it seems the color is a bit off, a bit whitish. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was leukoplakia of the vulva. Could you please ask: How is leukoplakia of the vulva treated? Thank youDoctor's answer:
Treating leukoplakia of the vulva requires interrupting the inflammation of the leukoplakia, repairing vulvar skin damage, restoring the normal function of vulvar skin tissue cells, stabilizing the nutritional status of its microvessels and nerve endings, altering the local tissue growth environment, and promoting the regeneration of local tissues. Gradually alleviate and eliminate the leukoplakia. During the relief process, pay attention to nursing and management, combine treatment with care, temporarily cease sexual activity, and maintain constant vulvar cleanliness. Avoid using many commercial cleansing agents for wiping. When itching is severe, apply protective ointment. Try to control yourself from scratching as much as possible. Do not wear tight or poorly breathable synthetic underwear. Eat less irritating foods!
