Suggest Remedies For Itchy Vagina With Pus Filled Bumps After Using A Rusty Razor

About 2 weeks ago I shaved with a rusty razor. I was in the shower and just picked it up. Later that day i went back and looked at it because I started itching in my vaginal area. Since then I ve been extremely itchy, pus have been coming out of the little bumps abd its smelly. It s become very sensitive. I have tried monistat razor rash creme and a triple antibiotic. Nothing is working and its very painful.My abdominal area is now bothering me.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I have read your description and understand your concern.
What problems you are experiencing around the vaginal area following use of razor is due to infection of the skin.
Kindly do the following to overcome it.
1. Wash the area with antiseptic solution like Povidine-iodine twice daily.
2. After drying, apply Neomycin with Hydrocortisone cream.
3. Wear loose fitting undergarments to provide proper ventilation and avoiding friction.
4. Abstain from sexual activities till the lesions heal completely.
5. Maintain good personal hygiene and avoid using old rusty razors as they could cause infection.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
