Is it vulvar leukoplakia?

Patient's question:

The symptom is itching outside the vagina. After urinating, it often feels wet and uncomfortable. This has been going on for three or four months. A family member looked at that area and said it was white, rough, and moss-like.

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 local tissue regeneration, and gradually eliminate the leukoplakia. During the healing process, attention should be paid to care and maintenance, combining treatment with care. Sexual activity should be temporarily avoided, while maintaining vulvar cleanliness. Avoid using some commercial cleaning agents for washing. When itching is severe, protective ointment can be applied. It is important to restrain oneself from scratching as much as possible, avoid wearing tight or poorly breathable synthetic underwear, and reduce the intake of irritating foods.
