Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling itchy in my private area, and it even got scratched open, which is very painful and uncomfortable. I went to the hospital for a check-up, and they said I have leukoplakia of the vulva. I'm really struggling with this. If I've just been diagnosed with leukoplakia of the vulva, and the doctor says it's a bit serious now, with some swelling, what kind of medicine can treat it?Doctor's answer:
Hello, leukoplakia of the vulva refers to various types of vulvar nutritional deficiencies. It is recommended to treat with vitamin A acid cream topically. Laser therapy can also be tested, or 2% hydrocortisone ointment can be used to reduce swelling and relieve pain, or 2% testosterone propionate cod liver oil ointment can be applied. It is important to maintain cleanliness and dryness during the day. Avoid using soap or irritating medications to wash the vulva, and do not eat spicy or irritating foods. Clothing should be loose and comfortable, and laundry should be changed frequently. At the same time, it is important to pay attention to wearing soft cotton products. Leukoplakia of the vulva is an easily recurring gynecological disease. During treatment, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to vulvar hygiene, with a light diet as the foundation. Wishing female patients a quick relief!
