What is simple vulvitis?

Vulvitis is one of the common gynecological diseases in women. There are several common types: non-specific vulvitis, fungal vulvitis, infantile vulvitis, vestibular gland inflammation, acute vulvar ulcers, and sexually transmitted diseases.

Simple vulvitis belongs to non-specific vulvitis and is often caused by stimulation from various physical and chemical factors. It is one of the common gynecological inflammations. Simple vulvitis refers to the inflammation of the vulvar skin or mucosa, which can be divided into acute and chronic types. Due to its proximity to the urethra and anus, and the friction between the legs during movement, inflammation in these areas can spread to the vulva.
