Patient's question:
The external genitalia are currently swollen. I have been using Iranian saffron leukoplakia ointment continuously.

I would like to see if there are any other good treatment methods available. What are the effective treatment methods for leukoplakia of the external genitalia currently?Doctor's answer:
The causes of vulvar leukoplakia are related to changes in the internal environment, including endocrine disorders and functional imbalances among the liver, spleen, and kidneys, as well as recurrent local inflammation of the vulva. Therefore, avoid overexertion, ensure deep sleep, adjust your emotions, and boost your immunity. Inflammation of the vulva and vagina should be treated promptly, and external factors leading to inflammation should be avoided.If vulvar leukoplakia occurs, it is essential to seek timely treatment at a reputable specialized hospital to prevent the disease from progressing to a severe stage and transforming into cancer, which could harm the soul.
There are several treatment methods for vulvar leukoplakia, but the diagnostic approach varies depending on the patient's symptoms. Therefore, it is recommended that patients seek diagnosis and treatment as soon as they notice symptoms.
