Are there any gps/gynaecologists on here by any chance?

Just a quick one really, pretty sure it's a complete shot in the dark but I have scared tissue from my stitches following the birth of my baby. I had a gynecology appointment and was told to use vagisil lidocaine 2% cream on the scar once a day and also before sex.

The gynecologist told me to use it on the scar and just internally at the entrance slightly, however the cream says for external use only. (I'm pretty sure this is just to cover their own backs but I don't want any further problems!)

Has anybody had any experience of this or even used it before for the same thing?

Ah brilliant thank you! I assumed so to be honest but wanted to double check!
