The entrance of my vagina is raw and sore, this only seems to happens when using toilet paper. I ve changed to a much softer type buy once I wipe again it s raw. I ve bought zinc cream which I m hoping will help. Is there something else I should use?

Hello dear
Understand your concern
Raw and sore vaginal opening may be due to vaginal infections (fungal mainly) or lower urinary tract infections (urethritis)
Exact diagnosis made by examination and after proper investigation like swab test, urine routine, microscopy and culture.
Meanwhile take following advice:
Drink lot of fluids and juices of cranberry, orange and pineapple.
Tablet septran, apply clotrimazole ointment, use simple and unperfumed soap, wipe urinating area with warm water before and after urination, wear pure cotton loose innerwear, avoid sex till you get better
Hope this may help you
Best regards
