How To Rule Out Vaginal Prolapse?
Question: i think i have vaginal prolapse. i go to dr thursday. i was wondering is there a cream with lidocain to ease my irratation
Brief Answer:
If Lidocaine gel does not help, use Estriol cream.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I will be answering your concerns.
Yes lidocaine gel is available in 1% and 2%
The irritation you have is probably due to estrogen deficiency. Apply estriol cream to the vaginal mucosa once daily and see.
If there is any uterine prolapse outside the vulva try to push it inside and hold it in place with betadine and lignocaine gel soaked tampon. Change the tampon daily.
To strengthen the pelvic muscles, please do kegel exercises. You can find the instructions as to how to do them on mayo clinic website or even in you tube.
I hope this is helpful
If you have any further concerns, do write to me. I will be happy to answer.
Best wishes,
Dr Rama
