Patient's question:
The external genitalia have again appeared with a burning sensation and severe local itching. I am currently using topical medication for treatment. For leukoplakia of the external genitalia, how should one's diet be managed?Doctor's answer:
Hello, leukoplakia of the vulva refers to limited or diffuse white patches on the skin of the female genital area. Some patients may experience itching, atrophy of the vulva, reduced elasticity of labia, and other symptoms. It is recommended to consume foods with anti-vulvar tumor and leukoplakia effects, such as sesame, almonds, wheat, barley, calabash, and pig pancreas. During treatment, avoid drinking beer and eating spicy, raw onion, raw garlic, and other extremely cold and irritating foods. The recurrence of vulvar leukoplakia severely harms women's health, and patients need to pay attention to maintaining vulvar cleanliness and avoiding sexual activity throughout life. Finally, we hope that female patients can receive standardized treatment.
