Don’t Ignore These 6 Signs on Vulva | Doctor Explains

📌What are the warning signs of vulval cancer? Persistent itching, a lump, sore, skin color changes, bleeding, or a wound that doesn't heal should be evaluated. 📌Why is my vulva itchy? Itching can be caused by irritation, infections, skin conditions, allergies, or, less commonly, more serious conditions. 📌What causes a lump on the vulva? Common causes include cysts, ingrown hairs, infections, or swollen glands, but any persistent lump should be checked. 📌What does a healthy vulva look like? Every vulva is different in size, shape, and color. New or persistent changes are more important than natural variation. 📌Why does my vulva hurt? Pain can result from infections, skin conditions, injury, cysts, or other medical conditions. 📌What causes sores or ulcers on the vulva? They may be caused by infections, inflammatory conditions, or other medical problems and should be assessed if persistent. 📌Why has the color of my vulva changed? Color can vary naturally, but new dark, white, or red patches should be assessed by a healthcare professional. 📌What are white patches on the vulva? White patches can be due to skin conditions such as lichen sclerosus or other causes that require medical evaluation. 📌When should I see a doctor about vulvar symptoms? If you have persistent itching, pain, a lump, bleeding, sores, or skin changes, seek medical advice. 🛒 Products I like: https://shopmy.us/drsimia 🛒 Amazon favorites: www.amazon.co.uk/shop/drsimi_a FTC: This video is not a sponsored video, some links mentioned are affiliate, which means this channel may earn a small commission if you buy a product from the specific link. 👋🏿 Say Hi On Socials: www.instagram.com/drsimi_a/ www.tiktok.com/@drsimi_a www.facebook.com/drsimi.a/ 📌 Disclaimer: The Video Content on this channel is for educational purposes and not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
