How should vulvar itching be treated?

If women have some vulvar itching, it is recommended that you should not scratch or scratch with your hands during this period, because our hands are usually very dirty. If you scratch with your hands, it will easily allow bacteria to enter the vagina, which will easily cause you to have some diseases. If you don’t know how to treat it now, then let the editor explain to you how to treat female vulvar itching?

1. General treatment

Pay attention to menstrual hygiene, keep the vulva clean and dry, and avoid scratching. Do not wash with hot water and avoid using soap. When there is an infection, potassium permanganate solution can be used for a sitz bath, but local scrubbing is strictly prohibited. Clothes, especially underwear, should be loose and breathable. Avoid alcohol and spicy or allergic foods.

2. Etiology and Treatment

Eliminate local or systemic factors that cause itching, such as trichomoniasis, fungal infection or diabetes. It is best to treat it according to the specific cause, so that the treatment effect will be better.

3. Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that damp heat and yin deficiency and blood dryness are the main causes of female vulvar itching. From the perspective of holistic treatment, the onset of vulvar itching is also closely related to the liver, spleen, kidney and other internal organs in the body, and involves the Ren and Du meridians. Some are caused by damp-heat in the liver meridians and leucorrhea soaking the genitals; some are caused by liver-kidney yin deficiency, loss of essence and blood, and malnutrition of the vulva. Vulvar itching often occurs interchangeably with leucorrhea, and in severe cases, it may also be complicated by vulvar pain.

If vulvar itching occurs, first of all, you should pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva, do not use soap to wash the vulva; try to restrain scratching and rubbing the affected area; avoid spicy food; be careful to avoid emotional depression and tension. If the symptoms still cannot be relieved, you should go to the hospital to find out the cause of the itching and treat it accordingly.

For modern women, there are many reasons for some problems, just like what I said above, it is caused by some causes, or it is caused by not paying attention to conditioning in daily life. In normal times, you still need to pay more attention to observation and conditioning. I hope what the editor said will be helpful to you.
