Patient's question:
Dropped a lot of tea tree essential oil on the underwear, causing swelling and pain in the external genitalia. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Vulvitis is mostly caused by the irritation of vaginal inflammatory secretions on the vulvar skin and mucosa. There are also cases where there is no vaginal inflammation infection, but the vulvar area simply shows signs of inflammation. It is recommended that you first visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a secretion test to rule out vaginal inflammation. If it is simply vulvar inflammation, you can appropriately use diluted salt water or the prepared Jieryin liquid to clean the vulvar area, which can help alleviate inflammation and itching.
