A member asked:
I have 2 1/2 long cuts at the bottom of my vaginal opening from vag dryness. would vaseline help them heal? moisturizers specifically for this area?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dryness: Soothing lotions like vasoline lotion or any aloe containing lotion would be helpful. Avoid trauma to the vagina and intercourse so that these areas will heal faster. If vaginal itching precedes these cuts, use of occasional cortisone type ointment or cream may prevent them. Vaginal dryness at your age is unusual. Consult your gynecologist as needed..
