Patient's question:
I have a moderate gynecological disease, and my body is not as young as it was ten years ago. Recently, I have been feeling a persistent itch in the external genital area, and the skin in the itchy area is very dry with white spots. Occasionally, there is a burning pain sensation. Under such torment, I went to the gynecology department of the hospital for consultation and found that my condition is very similar to vulvar leukoplakia. What is vulvar leukoplakia?Doctor's answer:
This is very similar to the symptoms of leukoplakia of the vulva. The main manifestations include dry and elastic skin loss in the genital area, itching, and white spots. The main treatment methods include physical therapy, surgical treatment, and traditional Chinese medicine treatment, etc. For severe cases of leukoplakia of the vulva, it is recommended to seek medical attention immediately and start treatment promptly based on the doctor's advice. Avoid using medication blindly, as this may worsen the condition. Do not eat overly sweet and greasy foods, as they can easily burden the digestive system.
