Xylocaine Ointment is used to reduce/relieve pain and discomfort associated with skin irritation, burns, scratches, insect bites, skin abrasions, or sunburn. It is also used to treat post-herpetic neuralgia, premature ejaculation, pain in urethritis (inflammation of the urethra) and as an adjunct for endotracheal intubation. It contains Lidocaine, which produces local numbness by blocking the nerve signal in the affected area. In some cases, it may cause application site reactions such as burning sensation, itching, redness, and irritation.

Health Queries

My wife experiences severe pain and fear of penetration, and we have not been able to have intercourse for the past six months. What medications, creams, or treatments can you suggest to help resolve this issue?

Your wife?s symptoms strongly suggest vaginismus or dyspareunia. This is highly treatable, and I recommend consulting a gynaecologist. Common treatments include: Topical Creams: Prescribed lidocaine ointment can help numb the area to reduce immediate pain. Vaginal Dilators: Used progressively with water-based lubricants to help her body comfortably adjust to penetration. Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy: Specialised therapy to relax involuntarily contracting vaginal muscles. Counselling/Sex Therapy: Crucial for addressing the fear and anxiety associated with pain. Please avoid forced penetration, as it worsens spasms. A combination of physical and psychological therapy is highly effective.
