What Is Leukoplakia?
10. What Is the Prognosis for Leukoplakia Patients?
On its own, leukoplakia is not a dangerous condition and likely will not result in other life-threatening issues. Most patients experience mild irritation for up to two weeks before the white patches disappear on their own. Even if further medical intervention is necessary, the prognosis for most patients is excellent.
Leukoplakia is a mucous membrane condition that may appear on or near the genitals or, more commonly, in the mouth. While it is not usually a condition that develops into more serious diseases, if you feel afraid, seek a medical opinion.
