Brief analysis of common symptoms of white lesions of the vulva

Vulvar leukoplakia is a common gynecological disease that seriously endangers the health of female friends. What are the symptoms of vulvar leukoplakia ? Here are some common symptoms of vulvar leukoplakia.

Vulvar leukoplakia is a vulvar disease with vulvar itching as the main symptom but unknown etiology. Although there is no direct cause of vulvar leukoplakia, anatomical and physiological factors such as the long-term moisture of the local skin of the vulva and the stimulation of vaginal discharge may be related to the occurrence of vulvar leukoplakia.

Vulvar pruritus is the main symptom of vulvar leukoplakia, which is unbearable for most patients. Since scratching the local area stimulates larger nerve fibers and inhibits the reflex of itching nerve fibers, the itching of patients with vulvar leukoplakia can be temporarily relieved, but scratching can cause further damage to the skin, thereby triggering new itching reactions and making the itching more severe, forming a vicious cycle.

The range of lesions of vulvar white lesions varies, mainly involving the labia majora, interlabial groove, clitoral hood, posterior labial symphysis, etc., and the length is symmetrical. When the early lesions are mild, the skin color of patients with vulvar white lesions is dark red or pink, and the hyperkeratotic areas are white. Due to long-term scratching and friction, the skin of patients with vulvar white lesions thickens like leather, the pigment increases, the skin texture is obviously prominent, the skin ridges are raised, and there are many small polygonal flat papules, which are grouped into pieces and have lichenification. Therefore, this disease is also clinically called chronic simple lichen. Due to different degrees of local moisture, scratching and friction, and different reactions to local medications, the lesions of patients with vulvar white lesions have different morphologies in different parts. In severe cases, scratching can cause epidermal scratches, cracks, and ulcers.

The above is an introduction to the common symptoms of white lesions of the vulva. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. Once the symptoms of white lesions of the vulva appear, you must go to the hospital for treatment in time to avoid delaying the disease.
