New lumps after vulvectomy

Hi there

I recently was diagnosed with vulvar cancer & had a radical vulvectomy 4 weeks ago.

I also have lichen sclerosis. This week I have noticed 2 new lumps around my vulva & one of these is really itchy. I have started using diprosone again to relieve itchiness. Should I be concerned?

DiBw,

Thank you for reaching out for support.

Unfortunately I cannot give you any medical advice, I would like to suggest consulting your GP to check if ok to continue using that cream.
