Patient's question:
At first, I didn't feel anything uncomfortable, but recently, during intimacy with my husband, I've noticed dryness, and I've also been experiencing constant itching in the external genital area. After a check-up, I was told it's vulvar leukoplakia. I'm not very familiar with this condition. Could you please tell me: Which hospital is considered authoritative for treating vulvar leukoplakia currently, and what is the treatment method?Doctor's answer:
Hello, for the treatment of leukoplakia of the vulva, it is necessary to interrupt the inflammation of the leukoplakia, repair vulvar skin damage, alleviate and restore the normal function of vulvar skin tissue cells, stabilize the nutritional status of its microvessels and nerve endings, change the local tissue growth environment, promote the regeneration of local tissues, gradually alleviate and eliminate the leukoplakia. During the alleviation process, attention should be paid to nursing and management, combining treatment and care, temporarily suspending sexual activity, and maintaining vulvar cleanliness at all times. Avoid using many market preparations for washing, and when itching is severe, protective ointments can be applied. Try to control yourself from scratching and avoid wearing tight or poorly breathable synthetic underwear!
