A member asked:

After sex, the inner lip near my urethra was raw, became red, and burned. i believe it is an abrasion. what can i do or use to heal this? ointments?

Sex abrasion: Assuming the burning is slight and superficial, you may be right. If burning on urination, it may be UTI. If burning lasts more than a day or so, see your provider to exclude infection. I like 'no treatment' when a minor problem will get better on its own. Use soap and water to keep the area clean. Prevention with OTC lubes is pretty obvious advice and may enhance the experience anyway.
