Patient's question:
Last night while taking a bath, I accidentally discovered several small white spots near my vulva. I didn't know when they had appeared, and they weren't painful or itchy. At first, I didn't want to worry about it, but then I was afraid it could be an early symptom of a serious illness. So, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said it was leukoplakia of the vulva.Doctor's answer:
The traditional treatments for this condition include the following:1. Medicinal treatment: Local application of hormone drugs and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) treatment.
2. Physical treatment: Microwave treatment, carbon dioxide laser, helium-neon laser, BOM light, high-frequency electric knife, local electrocautery, and local cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen.
3. Surgical treatment: Simple vulvectomy and split-thickness skin grafting vulvectomy.
4. Minimally invasive treatment.
The condition of leukoplakia of the vulva is very serious. It is recommended that patients seek treatment immediately and follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, dietary issues should be paid attention to, avoiding spicy foods to prevent worsening the condition.
The above information is hoped to assist you. Thank you.
