Hello SexyLabia.com,
I've been experiencing a lot of
itchiness and discomfort lately on my labia. I think this is because
of the tanning I was doing over vacation in Florida. I followed the
techniques listed on this site and my pussy has been very
uncomfortable over the past few days. I've been using vagisil to try
and help but it isn't working. The vagisil only made it worse. Now my
pussy is swollen and red. Me and my boyfriend have big plans next
week and I really wanna get this fixed. Can anybody suggest anything
to try and help?

Dear Candice,
As I wrote in my response to you by e-mail, it sounds like you have a sunburn down
there. Vagisil helps against itchy and irritated skin, but a sunburn
is a different story. The benzocaine in Vagisil actually makes the
symptoms worse.
Some tips:
For more info about treating a sunburn check out:
Sunburn First
Aid at the US National Library of Medicine
From
that page:
- DO NOT apply petroleum jelly, benzocaine, lidocaine,
or butter to the sunburn. They make the symptoms worse and can
prevent healing.
- DO NOT wash burned skin with harsh soap.
That should get you back to normal within days. However, if
it doesn't get better you should see a doctor.
