What is the cause of vulvar itching and how to treat it? Vulvar itching is a common gynecological symptom. Some external factors, irritation and various diseases can cause vulvar itching, which makes patients feel uneasy. Vulvar itching mostly occurs in the clitoris, labia minora and other places. Many people do not have a good grasp of the basic knowledge of vulvar itching. Below we can learn the basic knowledge and treatment methods of vulvar itching.

Causes of vulvar itching

1. Vulvar skin diseases: such as those caused by tinea cruris. The spread of this tinea fungus to the private parts may also cause vulvar itching symptoms. It may also be some itching symptoms caused by vulvar eczema.

2. Viral infection: It is common in genital warts and mostly occurs in women's vaginal wall or cervical opening. When it occurs in the vulva, some clustered finger-like bumps will appear, which may also cause vulvar itching.

3. Skin allergies during sexual intercourse: such as allergy to semen, allergy to condoms, and allergy to friction. If the patient does not know what causes the skin allergy, they need to check with each other to find the cause of the disease.

4. Other reasons: Diabetic patients' urine sugar irritates the private skin, causing high-risk bacterial vulvitis or vaginitis, which will cause vulvar itching symptoms.

5. Candidal vaginitis: such as genital itching or vulvar itching, secondary dreg-like leucorrhea, etc., scratching may also cause vulvar dermatitis eczematous changes.

Treatments for vulvar itching

1. General treatment: Pay attention to the hygiene of private parts during menstruation and at other times. Do not scratch hard when symptoms occur, and do not use hot water or soap to clean the wound. If infection occurs, you can use an appropriate amount of potassium permanganate solution for bathing, but do not scrub locally as it may burn the skin. Some patients should also pay attention to their daily diet, eat less irritating food or often smoke and drink and so on.

2. Medication treatment for vulvar itching

After applying the face, apply appropriate amount of activated zinc oxide ointment to the injured area. If inflammation occurs, growth hormone cream or appropriate amount of diphenhydramine cream can be applied.
