Petroleum Jelly: Try a light application of petroleum jelly. This can get quite annoying. Make sure that you are drinking enough water during each day so your bowel movements are soft enough. If constipation is a problem, consider using a generic brand of polyethylene glycol an osmotic laxative. Ask pharmacist.
