Patient's question:
Recently, my friend has been frequently feeling irritable, experiencing chest tightness, and feeling completely exhausted. They tend to get angry at everything they see. Another friend suggested that it might be leukoplakia of the vulva. It's said that people with leukoplakia of the vulva experience these symptoms. However, we're so young and feel too embarrassed to go to the hospital for a thorough examination. What exactly is leukoplakia of the vulva?Doctor's answer:
Mainly affects the labia majora, labia minora, interlabial sulcus, clitoral hood, and posterior commissure, often presenting symmetrically. The affected skin areas thicken like leather, with ridges or scales, showing eczema-like changes. The color of the external genitalia is often dark red or pink, interspersed with clearly demarcated white patches, generally without swelling or adhesion. In addition, during the treatment of leukoplakia of the vulva, besides symptomatic treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also very important. The patient must maintain a light diet and always keep a cheerful and optimistic attitude to avoid unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery of leukoplakia of the vulva.
