Patient's question:
I don't know when it started, but the external genital area has been itchy, the skin there has become very dry, and it hurts at night, with the itching being particularly severe. I've started just rinsing it with plain water, which provides some relief, but after two days without washing, it still itches and hurts, making me restless. Even napping during the day is difficult, and my mood is not good either. Now, my energy is very low. Could you please tell me what to use to wash leukoplakia of the external genitalia?Doctor's answer:
Patients with vulvar leukoplakia should pay attention to hygiene. They can wash with clean water or use some gynecological washes, but they must absolutely not use alkaline water like soapy water, as it will worsen the condition. It is recommended to wear loose-fitting clothing and pure cotton underwear. Additionally, during the treatment period, the patient's dietary condition and care are also crucial. The patient should pay close attention to rest and engage in appropriate activities to avoid unnecessary injuries.
