After reading these forums I tried some Olive oil on the sore area around anus, it stung a bit , is this normal ?
Isobel, at first it will but if you can tolerate it in the beginning it will subside and as you heal it will be no burn at all. But a seitz bath with baking soda before, can be a relief also.
Isobel- It stung me too when I had raw spots. I felt like I was “ badting myself”. I used Emuaid Maxx and Emuaid regular to heal the raw parts, then after they were healed I could use olive or coconut oil, yes, v- magic or emuaid to moisturize.
Should have said “ basting”....🙄🙄
Thank you I thought it was ok just need reassuring.
Thank you most helpful.
Sat in baking soda I use this every night plus I also use terrasil I got off amazon.
Thank you sounds good
I would use adult rash cream in this area. Will keep you dry and easy to wipe. Keeps from chafing will not burn.
What is the name of the cream please ?
Probably adult Balmex- over with incontinence pads
Just an update ladies, I cant believe after only 3 days I am beginning to feel "normal" down there, who knew simple Olive Oil was one of the answers.
Balmex cream works
