Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing itching, redness, and changes in inflammation in the external genital area. What is vulvitis and can it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, vulvitis is primarily characterized by symptoms such as vulvar itching, redness, swelling, and inflammatory changes. Most cases are caused by a weakened immune system, infections, or inflammation. It is recommended that you first visit a gynecological hospital for a thorough examination. If there is vaginal inflammation, the underlying cause should be addressed first. Then, based on the results, such as skin diseases, leukoplakia, or inflammatory conditions, treatment should be tailored to the specific cause.In addition, during the treatment of vulvitis, in addition to medication, the patient's dietary habits and mental state are also particularly important. Patients must avoid excessive mental stress and anxiety to prevent unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of vulvitis.
