A member asked:

Can i sit in a basin that has hot water and sea salt for vaginal itching and burning?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Could be a yeast infection, could possibly be a bacterial infection. If a east is present could also be a virus. No intercourse until symptoms are treated and see a gynecologist asap. Hot salt water is a bad idea. Will not help and could harm.
