Possible definitions for vulpic


Vulci
Ancient Etruscan city, northwest of Rome. It grew out of a number of Villanovan villages and flourished chiefly in the 6th-4th cent. BC, largely as a result of trade, and the manufacture of bronze objects, incl. jugs and tripods. The important center of a large city-state, after the 6th cent. BC it gradually came under Roman rule. The site, excavated in the 1950s, is noted for its bronze and pottery, much of which has been found in a huge necropolis. There also are Roman ruins.


vulvitis
Inflammation of the vulva (female external genitalia), with red, swollen, itchy skin that may turn white, crack, or blister. The vulva provides a moist, warm breeding ground, particularly for yeast infection (see candida) but also for other fungi, bacteria, or viruses, especially if underwear is tight, nonporous, and nonabsorbent and if hygiene is poor. Pantyhose, synthetic underwear, detergents, vaginal sprays, and deodorants may cause allergy or irritation. Drying and thinning of tissues after menopause make them more susceptible to irritation and infection. Treatment ranges from wearing loose, absorbent cotton underwear, to creams that kill the infective microorganisms.
