What Causes Itching In Genital Region When Treating Vulvar Lichen Sclerosus?

I ve been told in the past that I had vuvular lechin sclerosis and completed Clobetasol. I ve had no issues for a while. Lately I have become REALLY itchy from front to back. My husband had a look and he says that my genital region, perineum and bum have become white with very well defined borders. I m so itchy is nearly painful. Is this a BIG recurrence of Lichen Sclerosis?

hello mem,

welcome to HCM,

i have read your history and want to suggesting u some treatment.

i think u are suffering from tinea cruris. some home treatment and medicine and some precaution will definitely help u to get rid from yeast infection

some medications as well as some precautions are necessary.

Take fluconazole for 3 days after meal

use clotrimazole powder after perspiration, bathing, and swimming

do not wash vagina to much

do not wash vagina and groin area with soap it will alter normal PH of vagina and invite bacteria

use v-wash or clean and dry or intimate area wash two ties in a day for washing vaginal area it will maintain normal PH and bacterial flora

wear cotton based , fresh and clean underwear

do not use soap which leads to excessive dryness. use tea tree oil for toipical external application which has strong anti fungal activity

use topical application of clotrimazole thrice a day will help you a a lot.

you need to maintain personal hygiene, drink lots of water, keep your vagina clean, need to void following sexual intercourse, and have a healthy diet. If your immunity is decreased, to tend to be more prone for infections.hope I was helpful to you.

Hope this may help you
thanks
