Vulvar red papules

For women, vaginal maintenance is very important, as it affects their future pregnancy. However, because the vaginal area is relatively private and very fragile, it is particularly susceptible to disease. Once the vagina is infected, it will cause great harm to the female body and is difficult to cure. Some women report that they have red papules on their vulva. So, what is the reason for this situation?

1 It may be a symptom of genital herpes. Antiviral treatment such as acyclovir, valacyclovir, and famciclovir for genital herpes can alleviate the symptoms. While actively treating the virus, some traditional Chinese medicines that strengthen the spleen and eliminate dampness, clear away heat and detoxify, nourish the liver and kidneys, and nourish yin and clear heat can be given, such as Shenling Baizhu San and Zhibai Dihuang Wan.

2 Keep the vulva clean and dry. Avoid scratching. Wash with hot water and use soap. Use potassium permanganate solution for sitting bath when infected. The underwear should be breathable and loose. Avoid alcohol and spicy or allergic food.

3. Vulvar itching is a clinical symptom caused by various reasons. The cause is mostly due to the itching caused by a large amount of abnormal leucorrhea discharged from vaginitis caused by Trichomonas or fungal infection, which stimulates the vulva. Go to a regular hospital for a pathogenic examination of the secretions, and receive symptomatic treatment after a clear diagnosis. Also, pay attention to hygiene, change underwear frequently, and take a bath frequently. Eat less spicy food and take appropriate vitamin supplements.

4. It is mostly considered to be genital warts. Cryotherapy is also one of the more commonly used treatment methods for genital warts. It freezes skin lesions with liquid nitrogen or carbon dioxide dry ice, causing local edema and necrosis of the skin to achieve the purpose of treatment. However, it can only remove the warts visible on the surface, but cannot remove the latent viruses. It is also a treatment method that is prone to recurrence.

5. Eat easily digestible food and drink plenty of water. Strengthen care, keep skin clean and prevent secondary bacterial infection. Clothes, bedding, towels, dressings, etc. that have come into contact with herpes fluid should be disinfected promptly and not shared with healthy people. Patients with herpetic gingivostomatitis should keep their mouths clean and gargle with 1:1000 benzalkonium bromide solution. Patients with genital herpes should avoid sexual intercourse during treatment.
