Suggest Treatment For Allergic Reaction To Condoms

I have an irritation that I think came from spermicide on a condom. The irritation isn t inside me but kind of on the perimeter. What can I do to help clear this up? I ve been applying a cream made for yeast infections but it really isn t working.

Hello,

You can try hydrocortisone cream applied on a moisturized skin.

Avoid soap for genital wash and try latex free condoms in the future. This will help you.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sandeep Golla
