Patient's question:
My girlfriend has leukoplakia of the vulva. She has been treated for it before, but it has recurred recently. She says she's itching badly lately?Doctor's answer:
Vaginal leukoplakia refers to localized or diffuse white patches on the skin of the female genital area, which can spread to the inner thighs, perineum, and anus. Generally, drug treatment primarily involves the local application of hormone medications, local anesthetics, and anaerobic rods, as well as traditional Chinese medicine therapy. Physical therapy can also be used, with common methods including microwave therapy, laser therapy, local electrocautery, and cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen. Wishing your girlfriend a speedy recovery. Doctor's inquiry: In addition to timely treatment for vaginal leukoplakia, patients should always maintain a positive attitude to face the disease. Only in this way can they reduce their immune system and the belief in combating the disease. At the same time, they should pay close attention to their dietary care and monitor changes in their symptoms, believing that this will surely drive away vaginal leukoplakia.
