A member asked:
Very painful friction burn just inside my vaginal opening. what can i do to heal it and dull the pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tincture of time: First, this is what NOT to do. Do not continue intercourse or other vaginal stimulation until it heals. Do not place oil based ointments, lubricants, pads, or commercial products on the area. DO see a MD who can provide a safe Rx specific for treating the area if it is a "friction burn". Many time these issues will heal on their own if left to Mother Nature over time.
