Is it bad to masturbate with vicks?

Male or female?: The medicated camphor in the petroleum of the Vicks is irritating to mucous membranes. So for a male on his penis shaft, should be ok as long as the opening of the urethra is avoided. For a woman, though, this would be very irritating to the mucous membranes and besides the irritation could really predispose her to urinary tract infections. Recommend water based lubricants for females (like ky).

Masturbation: Vicks vapor rub was not intended for that purpose and may irritate your skin. Consider using a lubricant such as KY jelly for that purpose.
