Vulvar leukoplakia sounds like a strange disease, but in fact many women are deeply troubled by this disease. Because vulvar leukoplakia belongs to the category of dermatology, everyone is worried that this disease will be transmitted to people around them, which will cause a relatively large impact. Next, we will introduce to you in detail the issue of whether vulvar leukoplakia is contagious. Vulvar leukoplakia is not contagious. It is not an infectious disease. The benign keratotic lesions in the vulva are called white keratosis. White keratosis that does not heal for a long time may further develop into vulvar leukoplakia. The vulva is extremely itchy, especially around the clitoris. It is worse at night and affects work and sleep. Sometimes there may be a burning or painful feeling. The skin of the affected area is rough, lichenified, scratched, and sometimes cracked. Local hypopigmentation, the labia majora and minora generally turn white, and even affect urination and sexual life. In severe cases, it may turn into vulvar cancer, with other complications. The main diagnostic methods for vulvar leukoplakia: 1. An experienced doctor observes with the naked eye and diagnoses vulvar leukoplakia based on symptoms. 2. Vulvar tissue biopsy is a pathological examination. When the vulva turns white, peels, or has other lesions, you can take samples from multiple points. First, apply 1% toluidine blue to the lesion area, wait for it to dry, and then use 1% acetic acid to decolorize it for inspection. This can clearly determine whether it is vulvar leukoplakia. The above content is an introduction to the question of whether vulvar leukoplakia is contagious. Although vulvar leukoplakia is not contagious, if the patient cannot receive effective treatment for a long time, the disease will develop into a very serious condition. In the late stage, it will be very difficult to treat and the patient himself will suffer a lot. |
