Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Am glad to hear that the laser is working.
The burning however is another issue, my dear.
It is vulvodynia.
I sent you an article a while back.
Maybe that would help.
Finish all the laser sessions and let me know how much it has helped.
While the laser is going on, there would be a bit of redness and rash.
Is the entire course of laser treatment done ?
