Patient's question:
After giving birth for fifty days, I experienced itching in the external genital area. I went to the hospital, and the doctor recommended that I rinse with salt water. It felt better afterward, but after a few months, the itching returned. I went to the hospital again for a vaginal discharge test, and the results were normal. The doctor prescribed some topical and oral medications, which helped somewhat. Later, I used Fuciderm, and it worked well for a while, but the itching returned after some time. What medication should be used to treat leukoplakia of the external genitalia?Doctor's answer:
Vaginal leukoplakia refers to various types of vaginal nutritional deficiencies. It is recommended to use Enfusone cream or vitamin A acid cream for treatment. 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 cream can be applied. It is important to maintain cleanliness and dryness during daily life, avoid using soap or irritating drugs to wash the external genitalia, 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 necessary to wear soft cotton products. In addition, during the treatment of vaginal leukoplakia, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very important. Patients must digest vitamins, prevent stomach problems, and maintain a light diet to avoid unnecessary harm.
