What causes vulvar pain and swelling

The pain, redness and swelling of the vulva are obvious, which makes many women suffer. Therefore, you should pay attention to understand the cause. External injuries, such as perineal tears during childbirth, or some serious gynecological inflammations, may cause external pain and swelling.

1. Trauma (birth injury)

During childbirth, the perineum of pregnant women may be torn, causing local nerve and blood vessel damage. A small number of women may develop vulvar leukoplakia as a result, which is one of the causes of vulvar leukoplakia.

2. Genetics

About 10~30% of patients with vulvar leukoplakia are caused by genetics. Genetically caused vulvar leukoplakia is mainly atrophic type, and the patients are mainly young girls. In clinical practice, the first thing to pay attention to for patients under 15 years old is genetic factors, and inquire whether there are patients with vulvar leukoplakia in their parents' family.

3. Inflammation

It causes local nerve and blood vessel damage, and a small number of parturients suffer from inflammations such as trichomoniasis vaginitis, candidal vaginitis, cervical erosion, etc., which causes increased vulvar secretions and leucorrhea degeneration. Long-term irritation to the vulva can cause vulvar leukoplakia. In clinical practice, (Quyanling) and other symptomatic drugs are given.

4. Endocrine disorders

Through the determination of tritium (H3) labeled thymidine, it is believed that there is a protein hormone in the dermis that can inhibit the division and growth of epidermal cells and only acts locally on the epidermis with tissue specificity, called inhibin, which causes an imbalance between local connective tissue hyperplasia and the stimulation of epidermal metabolism there.
