    • Common presenting symptoms include pruritus, discharge, discomfort and dysuria
    • About 25% of vulvovaginitis cases in children are caused by infections
    • Recurrent symptoms, associated with a foul smell, may be due to a foreign body in the vagina
    • Psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and lichen sclerosus may cause chronic vulvar dermatosis
