Your body including this has the ability to self heal many injuries. A thin layer of a moisturizer may help reduce itching while it heals but just keeping the area clean should permit it to self heal within a week or s o.

If there is a raw area, you may apply triple antibiotic cream to keep it from getting infected, otherwise, let it heal on its own. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Get HPV and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!
