A member asked:
During a shower today, some very hot water got into my vagina and caused some burning sensation.can it cause cancer and can i use bacitracin ointment?

No and no: I'm sorry you got a burn. You'd do well to turn the water temperature down in your shower, but the heat exposure isn't going to give you cancer. If you have a simple, visible burn, simple first aid is sufficient, otherwise simply keep the area clean.
