Patient's question:
Patient Gender: FemalePatient Age: 26
I've been having some embarrassing issues these past few days. My lower area has been itchy. I usually work in an office, and there are many colleagues there. I don't feel comfortable scratching it, as I'm afraid someone will see me. I've been using anti-inflammatory medication.
Doctor's answer:
The following areas always feel itchy, and it's embarrassing to scratch. Using anti-inflammatory liquid for washing also doesn't show any effect. The extent of the lesions varies, mainly affecting the labia majora, interlabial groove, clitoral hood, and posterior commissure, often presenting symmetrically. The affected skin is thickened like leather, raised with folds, or may have scales or eczema-like changes. The surface color is mostly dark red or pink. It is recommended to visit a hospital for consultation.
