Patient's question:
I started feeling it last week. It's been itchy between my legs and the vulva, accompanied by pain and a burning sensation. I took a look with a mirror and noticed two white spots on the vulva. I tried treating it with something I found online, which might be vulvar leukoplakia. Since it's a private area, I feel uncomfortable going to the hospital for medication. I'd like to buy some topical cream myself, but I don't know if it can be cured. What kind of topical cream is good for vulvar leukoplakia?Doctor's answer:
It is necessary to perform a local pathological examination promptly. If malignancy is detected, topical hydrocortisone cream can be applied. It is important to maintain good hygiene and promptly visit a regular hospital for examination. Flucinolone acetonide can also be used to reduce swelling and relieve pain. The main goal is to identify the cause and provide symptomatic treatment. It is also possible that the condition is caused by skin diseases such as vulvar vitiligo. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
