A member asked:
I've heard that getting body lotion inside of the vagina can cause an infection, what should i do if i've accidentally done this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vaginal infection: Infection due to this is very unlikely. Would do nothing at this time and relax. If problems develop (which would be amazingly rare) then go and see your doctor. Good luck and worry not.
