Used Lubricant. Getting Lumpy Discharge And Itching. Side Effect?

I recently used the ky yours and mine for the first time and the day after I started to burn/ itch on the outside and inside. It is red and my discharge is a little lumpy. I am assuming it is just a bad reaction and I shouldnt use it again but is this something I should be going to the doctor for or should I wait and see if it goes away?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

At first, yes you should discontinue the use of KY jelly. The next thing I would suggest is to visit a doctor. Your presentation is also similar to that of an infection. Thus, you will need to rule out/diagnose all possibilities of an infection, before reaching the conclusion of a bad reaction. Please visit your doctor at the earliest, as a delay will only worsen the condition making it more difficult to treat.

Best wishes.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shoaib Khan
