Abstract
Contact vulvovagitis typically presents with itching, which can be severe, as well as edematous swelling of the vulvovaginal area. Diagnosis includes identification of exogenous irritants, which may be hard to identify, or endogenous conditions. Patients may be instructed to manage symptoms with sitz baths, practice vulvar hygiene, or occasionally apply topical corticosteroids. In severe cases, intramuscular steroids may be appropriate.
