How Can A Chemical Burn Around The Pubic Area Be Treated?
Hello, this past Sunday I used Nair on my vuvla area (I realize I m not supposed to). I was not happy with the results so I shaved the area immediately upon rinsing off the nair. So with my irritated skin and, I m assuming chemical burn, I had sex yesterday. My partner s trimmed pubic hair hurt my already sensitive skin. No this morning I have small bumps on my labia minor and around the vaginal opening. What should I do? Any help and advice is greatly appreciated.
hi mam,the vulval irritation usually subsides by itself once you remove the irritant.please do wear only cotton undergarments until it heals.do not re-expose to the irritant.also please avoid sex until the irritation gets reduced.do not apply any other creams or lotions.do not expose the area to any kind of soap,cleansing agents.if you have severe itching,you can go for tab.avil.if the irritation doesnt subside in 2-3 days,gynec consultation and examination of the area are recommended.any other queries,please dont hesitate to write to us.i'm always there to attend.thank you.take care.bye.
