A member asked:
The question asked is it okay to put neosporin on the vaginal area, but is it okay to put it in the vaginal opening if it is torn from intercourse?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neosporin: The bottom line neosporin (and triple antibiotic) are great products that have the unfortunate ability to cause a significant number of skin allergies. If you have a choice, stick with polysporin (bacitracin and polymyxin) or bacitracin.
