Vulvar itching is a common symptom in gynecological diseases. The vulvar area is particularly sensitive, and various gynecological conditions and external irritants can cause itching, which can make it difficult to rest and sleep. Vulvar itching often occurs in the clitoris and the labia minora, and can also involve the labia majora, perineum, and the area around the anus. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, this condition is referred to as "yin yang" or "vulvar itching." Moxibustion using a gentle method, applied to 2 to 3 acupoints each time, can achieve the effects of clearing heat and dispelling dampness, killing parasites to relieve itching, and strengthening the spleen to benefit dampness regulation.
It is recommended to perform moxibustion once a day, targeting 2 to 3 acupoints each time, with each acupoint being treated for 30 to 40 minutes. Rotate the points treated, with a 10-day period constituting one course of treatment, and then rest for 2 to 3 days before continuing with the next course. (If time permits and there is a need, more acupoints can be treated with moxibustion. The specific duration should be adjusted according to one's own physical needs.)
1. Maintain the cleanliness of your underwear and undergarments; opt for loose, soft fabrics, preferably cotton, and avoid wearing synthetic clothing directly against your skin. 2. Choose a light diet rich in vitamins, including fresh vegetables and soy products. Refrain from smoking, drinking alcohol, and consuming spicy foods to ensure regular bowel movements. 3. Avoid taking too many baths, and do not use excessively hot water during bathing to prevent skin dryness and itching. 4. Pay attention to menstrual hygiene and change sanitary pads frequently. 5.Avoid scratching or rubbing the vulvar area. You can use a personal hygiene spray to disinfect and relieve itching.
