Patient's question:
My gynecological inflammation has been going on for about a year. I always feel a bit itchy and haven't paid much attention to it. A few days ago, I went to the gynecology department to see a doctor, who said it was leukoplakia of the vulva, with white spots on the labia majora, but it wasn't too serious. Timely treatment can help it recover. However, I am still quite worried, and I thought I could use more soap to clean it myself. Can I clean the vulva with soap if I have leukoplakia?Doctor's answer:
With vulvar leukoplakia, it is important to maintain cleanliness and dryness in daily life. However, avoid washing the vulva with soap or irritating medications, as soap is alkaline while the vulva is acidic. Additionally, do not wear leather pants.Furthermore, during the treatment of vulvar leukoplakia, the patient's diet and care are also crucial. It is essential to pay attention to rest and engage in appropriate activities to prevent unnecessary harm.
