I know it's early , but I've got problems 'down there ' (a bit graphic ) sex related

[Careradvice2019]

I'm on furlough and DH is often working from home . We are having more sex than ever before , ( been together 23 years ) , there were often a drought
I think I have some sort of friction burn , if that is a thing . DH loooked at himself this morning as he felt itchy and he says got little red spots . I'm red and burning so I got a handful of salt and put it down there , now it's fucked and I'm soooooo sore ..the labia minora , he thinks thrush because I'm getting on a bit 🤷🏼‍♀️. And hence the salt and thrush usage
I've had a shower to get rid of the salt but it's burning still more so than before .
What can I do to remedy this . Yknow when you imagine a slug having salt on it that what it feels like
I need a GP for cream ? What can I use to stop the burning ? It feels like fire . I've got sudocrem can I put that there ?

If you’re going to treat for thrush make sure you treat DH too otherwise you’ll just pass it back and forth.

Personally I’d get the tablet treatment. I can’t remember the name but if you google it’ll come up. The generic version is significantly cheaper then canestan.

A gargling fanjo?
Now there's a new thing!!

salt on it because you'd gargle with salt water if you have thrush in the mouth so I thought if I had thrush I could just put salt down there and it would work the same
Course you did

So there's a spotty dick and a salty vagina

You need to have a full std check the both of you.

For those thinking I'm making it up , I think I'd think of something more elaborate than a thrushy Vaj . Jesus wept ,and yes thrush is thrush despite where it is , thrush and salt water no ? As old as time that's why I put salt there , it was bloody raging red and angry at me and I have to ' pat ' after going to the toilet as wiping flipping hurts
DH said I should've sat in a salt water bath ,
keep the judgement to yourselves or don't comment , don't be so flipping nasty

Also , good point about treating DH too , didn't think of that 👍

I do not believe you rubbed table salt down there.

yes thrush is thrush despite where it is , thrush and salt water no ? As old as time that's why I put salt there
Yes thrush is thrush but what grown intelligent woman would make the link to put salt on her vulva? Thrush is thrush but salt in the mouth vs salt down below is going to have completely different results..how did you not think about that

Try some brown sauce next

Also , good point about treating DH too , didn't think of that

Was he just going to live his life with an itchy, spotty dick and do nothing about it?

@donquixotedelamancha

Genius.

The next stage is a pickled onion, but you have to have a prescription for that.

Seriously OP, I'm with you on that meself, have a touch of the same and it's horrible. Hope the Canesten works for you.

Don't care if you believe me or not I did it , I thought it was a good solution at the time , clearly not as it stung like a bitch , I was there and I did it, Leg up on the kitchen counter , salt in hand , having a good old rub 🤷🏼‍♀️
Also I don't think for one minute he would want to walk around with a spotty dick , he probably has thought about treating himself I haven't had that conversation with him . He didn't think the salt thing was a good idea either
Anyway thanks all for advice I'm done with this conversation its finished for me as far as I'm concerned

Nah, melted cheese and bacon.

I don't think for one minute he would want to walk around with a spotty dick

I would recommend custard for that.

This sounds like a torture technique!

I would definately let the area have air! Maybe sit in a cool bath 🙈

I wouldn't put yoghurt on it either, i did that once and it stung like fuck!

Make sure the thrush treatment has totally worked on both of you before you have sex again or one will reinfect the other!

If it doesn’t work go to the sexual health clinic for a STD test as he may have been going elsewhere for sex prior to these fun times you are having together

SALT?! wtf

Sniggers

So you had a sore, itchy fanny and you thought the best thing to do was pick up a handful of salt and rub it into the sore itchy but......ok then.
