What Causes Irritated Blistered Skin In Anal Area And Vaginal Area?
Hi lately my anal area and vaginal area has been irritating me and I thought it would stop so I didn t worry about it but recently I ve changed toilet paper and wipes to Carmin when usually I use Angel Soft and I don t know what s the problem. Today I took it upon myself to look down there and noticed it s not very pleasant. It s peeling and kind of blistering and don t know what to do. Should I take more baths vs. showers or should I take a bath with Epsom salt or baking soda? I m very lost please help!!! It also itches !
