How is vulvar leukoplakia caused and how is it treated?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How is leukoplakia of the external genitalia caused, and how is it treated?

Doctor's answer:

Hello,
To treat leukoplakia of the vulva, it is necessary to block the progression of leukoplakia, repair vulvar skin damage, restore the normal function of vulvar skin cells, improve the nutritional status of microvessels and nerve endings, alter the local tissue growth environment, promote the regeneration of local tissues, and gradually eliminate the leukoplakia. During the healing process, attention should be paid to care, combining treatment with nourishment. Abstain from sexual activity, maintain vulvar cleanliness, and avoid using some commercial cleaning agents. When itching is severe, protective ointment can be applied. Try to restrain yourself from scratching as much as possible, avoid wearing tight or poorly breathable synthetic underwear, and reduce the intake of irritating foods.
