A member asked:

Had sex couple of days. used a latex condom but didn't use lube. down there is now itching and burning and is painful to touch. what's wrong?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible allergy: Itching and burning after use of latex condoms could indicate and allergy to the condom. It would be a good idea to take a warm bath daily, avoid any perfumed soaps or detergents, wear cotton underwear and avoid sex. If not improved in a few days, see a doctor
