Vulvar itching often occurs in the female vagina, both sides of the labia majora, mons pubis, clitoris and labia minora, and perineum, and can spread to the area around the anus. It is a type of localized pruritus. The itching is usually unbearable, often occurring at night. It often worsens during menstruation or after eating spicy foods. Vulvar itching often manifests as paroxysmal, and some are persistent, often aggravated at night, and restlessness when it occurs. Long-term itching can cause ulceration, swelling or secondary infection. Due to long-term scratching, some parts may become infiltrated, hypertrophic and pigmented. According to clinical evidence, there are only secondary skin lesions but no primary skin lesions, so the diagnosis is very easy. Most girls suffering from this kind of symptoms seek medical treatment implicitly, and usually cannot get timely treatment. Over time, it turns into recurrent itching, which even affects their mental health and, in severe cases, affects their study and work. If vulva itching occurs, first of all, you should pay attention to the daily cleaning of the vulva. Do not use soap to clean the vulva; try to avoid scratching and rubbing the injured area; avoid spicy food in the diet; pay attention to avoid emotional depression and anxiety. If the symptoms still cannot be alleviated, you should go to the hospital to find out the cause of the itching and treat it accordingly. During treatment, the focus of chronic diseases must be eliminated, so it is necessary to have a detailed understanding of the medical history, actively find the cause, and make corresponding external treatments to achieve twice the result with half the effort. For example, if vulvar pruritus is caused by diabetes, the itching can often be alleviated by actively controlling diabetes. When female patients have Trichomonas and fungi, in addition to placing the corresponding suppository in the female vagina every night, the former can take metronidazole, and the latter can be treated with itraconazole for one day. After treatment, the leucorrhea will be reduced. If you have pubic lice, you can use 30% Baibu tincture to treat it. If you have gonorrhea, you can use Linbizhi or Jibizhi to treat it. If you have non-gonococcal urethritis caused by Chlamydia trachomatis, you can use Aminocycline or Roxithromycin to treat it. After treatment, the leucorrhea will decrease, the irritation to the private parts will be reduced, and the vulvar itching can be relieved. Taking antihistamines such as chlorpheniramine, antalol, ketotifen, etc. has a calming and anti-itching effect. Topical medications can be corticosteroid creams and ointments. If only the vulva is itchy and the private skin is not thickened, you can use creams such as Thornseed Conal Cream or Shiquede Cream. If the area becomes infiltrated or thickened after scratching, irritating drugs can be used to avoid contact dermatitis and complicate the condition. It can be cleaned with medicine or applied with plaster. If it is serious, you need to go to the hospital for treatment. Prevention and common problems: Pay attention to treating the underlying disease, keep the vulva clean and dry, and do not wash it too frequently with soap. Avoid scratching, smoking, drinking and eating irritating foods. Do not scratch, rub or scrub with hot water. Appropriate use of sedatives, analgesics, and antihistamines can regulate mood, reduce anxiety and restlessness, and relieve itching. Some people use antipruritic drugs. |
