Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have an abrasion on the inside lip of my vagina and was prescribed mometasone furoate cream. I was told I could rub a small amount on the abrasion by the doctor even though the instructions say to put it on externally. can it be placed on the inside of the vagina?
Mometasone furoate cream should not be used inside the vagina.
Abrasion you have on the inside lip of your vagina should be further investigated to determine if it is due to any sexually transmitted disease/infection; trauma? new detergent or other intimo chemicals?
Biopsy of the abrasion is recommended or swab culture testing after visiting gynecologist.
Wish fast recovery.
