What tablets and ointments can I use to treat a tear and severe burning inside my bottom that occurred while removing an ointment applicator?

Asked by Male, 28 · 4 days ago

Accidental tears in this sensitive area are very common and usually heal well with gentle care. To relieve the severe burning, you can apply a generic lidocaine ointment to numb the area, or use plain petroleum jelly to soothe and protect the tear. For pain relief, over-the-counter paracetamol or ibuprofen tablets can help. Additionally, taking a generic stool softener like docusate sodium will keep your stools soft and prevent further irritation. Please avoid inserting any applicators for now, and try sitting in a warm bath for fifteen minutes to relax the muscles.
