Patients with itchy, red, swollen and painful vulva should go to a regular hospital for treatment to eliminate the cause.

If women do not treat this disease thoroughly enough, the itching, redness, swelling and pain of the vulva will recur, which will cause trouble to women's daily work and life.

3. Husband and wife govern together.

The phenomenon of itching, redness, swelling and pain in the vulva is sometimes a manifestation of female vulvitis or some diseases. At this time, women may transmit the bacteria they carry to men, so it is recommended that couples receive treatment at the same time.

4. Patients with vulvar itching, redness and swelling.

You should pay attention to menstrual hygiene, keep the vulva clean and dry, avoid scratching, do not wash with hot water, and avoid using soapy water to clean the vulva. Clothes, especially underwear, should be loose, comfortable and breathable. Avoid alcohol and spicy or allergenic food.

Causes of female vulvar swelling and pain

1. Special infection.

Vulvitis, candidal vaginitis and Trichomonas vaginitis are the most common causes of vulvar itching. If it is just a simple vaginal bacterial infection, you can use a bactericidal gynecological wash to reduce inflammation.

2. Chronic vulvar malnutrition.

The main symptom is extreme itching, accompanied by whitening of the vulva skin. This condition can be treated with lotions and gynecological topical medications.

3. Local allergy.

Allergy to condoms, tampons, sanitary napkins or other drugs or chemicals. This situation should be treated with medication promptly.

4. Bad hygiene habits.

If you do not pay attention to the local cleaning of the vulva, long-term stimulation of the vulva by sebum, sweat, menstruation, and vaginal secretions can cause itching: using rubber or plastic menstrual belts during menstruation and wearing non-breathable chemical fiber underwear at other times can induce itching due to the accumulation of moisture and heat.
