This might not a condition or disease; it is a symptom that results from a number of different causes including allergies, infections, injuries, and other external irritants. Other vaginal infections such as vaginitis or genital herpes often accompany vulvitis. Women who experience excessive stress, whose nutrition is poor, or who have poor hygiene may be more susceptible to vulvitis.
>>Several FACTORS may contribute to the development of vulvitis:
Oral sex--Scented or colored toilet tissue.--Bacterial or fungal infection.--Hot tubs and swimming pools.--Leaving a wet swimming suit on for a long period.
soaps,shampoos,bubble baths,powders,deodorants,sanitary napkins,non-cotton underwear,
pantyhose,vaginal douches,
topical medications.
>>MOST COMMON SYMPTOMS are:
Itching-Redness-Swelling.
Fluid-filled, clear blisters that break open, and form a crust (sometimes mistaken for herpes).
Soreness.
Scaly appearance.
Thickened or whitish patches
