Patient's question:
I've had persistent itching in my external genital area these past few days. Sometimes it's so itchy that I feel like I can't stop scratching. Later, my husband took a look and said there were two small white spots on the external genital area, about the size of beans, which have been causing the itching. I've never had this before, and it's a bit hard for me to accept.Doctor's answer:
Your condition is considered to be vulvar leukoplakia, also known as vulvar white lesions, vulvar dystrophy, or vulvar nutritional disorders. It may be caused by chronic injury, allergies, local nutritional and endocrine imbalances, or metabolic disorders. Long-term local moisture of the vulva and the impact of vaginal secretions are related to this condition. It is recommended that you visit a hospital for a thorough examination of vaginal secretions and necessary local examinations. Based on the examination results, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Additionally, during the treatment period, the dietary condition and care of patients with vulvar leukoplakia are also very important. Patients should pay close attention to rest and engage in appropriate activities to avoid unnecessary injuries. It is hoped that the above information can assist you. Thank you.
