Vulvar white lesions are also called vulvar white lesions, vulvar leukoplakia or vulvar dystrophy. The so-called vulvar leukoplakia is actually a disease of tissue degeneration and pigmentation caused by local nerve and vascular malnutrition of the vulva. Clinically, the local skin and mucous membranes of the vulva are often white, coarsened or atrophic, collectively referred to as "vulvar leukoplakia".

Clinical pathological examinations show that atypical cell proliferation belongs to the category of "vulvar itching", "vulvar pain" and "vulvar pain" in traditional Chinese medicine. The main reason is that damp heat invades the vulva through liver injection, or the deficiency of essence and blood such as liver and kidney blood deficiency, liver and kidney yin deficiency, and kidney yang deficiency cannot moisten and nourish the vulva. Vulvar itching, sometimes accompanied by a burning sensation of vulvar leukoplakia, also known as vulvar leukoplakia, is a chronic vulvar malnutrition disease. Including primary vulvar atrophy, atrophic lichen sclerosus, vulvar leukoplakia, leukoplakia vaginitis, vulvar atrophy. Clinicians usually call it vulvar leukoplakia, a disease in which the skin and sticky contact turn white and thick and become atrophic.

Benign keratosis of the vulva is called white keratosis. Long-term uncured white keratosis can further develop into vulvar leukoplakia. The cause is still unclear, which may be related to systemic factors such as diabetes and endocrine disorders. Physical stimulation such as humidity and heat in the local environment of the vulva can induce vulvar leukoplakia. Histopathology shows mucosal epithelial or epidermal proliferative lesions. Under normal circumstances, the vulvar mucosa has no granular layer and stratum corneum. White keratosis or white patches appear on the vulva, the granular layer is hyperkeratotic, the granular layer is hypertrophic, and the spinous layer is hypertrophic. About 80% of the lesions are located in the transition area of ​​the skin and mucosa of the labia majora. It is a benign white keratosis. There is no spinous cell atypia in the spinous cell layer. Generally speaking, there are no dyskeratinized cells.

There is chronic inflammatory cell infiltration under the epidermis. Early metamorphosis can be seen in vulvar leukoplakia, that is, some prickle cells are abnormal, the nuclei are of different sizes, the prickle cells are arranged in disorder, and there are dyskeratotic cells on the surface of the prickle cells, which are called malignant dyskeratotic cells, and inflammatory cell infiltration. Different degrees of n are in the dermis, and the collagen fibers in the superficial dermis are not pure.

1. Drug treatment: This method of treating vulvar leukoplakia is generally based on external use, such as using a weakly acidic care solution to clean the vulva, and then applying the medicine topically. The medicine should preferably be prepared after consulting a professional physician. If you take the medicine yourself, you should first consult and understand it clearly before using it; perhaps you can also go to the hospital for local drug injections, which is more direct than applying the medicine.

2. Physical therapy: Physical treatment methods are mainly microwave therapy. High-frequency electric knife and carbon dioxide laser are the most commonly used methods for the treatment of vulvar leukoplakia. In addition, local electrocautery is also used for treatment; some also use liquid nitrogen for local freezing. Physical therapy is mostly a kind of therapy that changes the living environment of bacteria. It is also the second most used therapy after drug treatment.

3. Traditional Chinese medicine: Traditional Chinese medicine is a relatively conservative treatment for vulvar leukoplakia. Most people prefer traditional Chinese medicine because it is generally safer than other treatments. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment of vulvar leukoplakia is mainly based on the characteristics of the lesions and clinical manifestations for targeted treatment.

However, Chinese medicine has a long course of treatment for vulvar leukoplakia, and it cannot reach the inside of the diseased cells, and has insufficient effect on the human immune regulation. Therefore, most vulvar leukoplakia patients cannot avoid recurrence after long-term treatment with Chinese medicine. Everyone should note that each method of treating vulvar leukoplakia has both advantages and disadvantages, so the best treatment for the disease is a combination of oral and topical medications, and a combination of Chinese and Western medicine.
