A member asked:
Can i use bactroban (mupirocin) on the inside of the labia minora, near the vaginal opening, to treat a bacterial infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You can: But what are you treating? "Bacterial infection" includes many different things. A furuncle? Bacterial vaginosis? STD? Don't expect much benefit from bactroban (mupirocin) in this area.
