The main cause of vaginal itching is yeast infection (candida). Lidocaine will help itching briefly after each treatment, but Gold Bond otherwise does not treat yeast. Try an over-the-counter yeast treatment -- many choices available, active ingredients ending in "azole" (miconazole, clotrimazole, and others). All are equally effective; choose the cheapest. See doctor if that doesn't clear it up.

You will become numb . But be careful with the amount as high absorption into the bloodstream can occur in areas of rich blood supply
