Question: I applied podophyllin paint to my genital area to treat the warts there and even though i tried to take precautions by rubbing Vaseline in the surrounding area some of the ointment touched my scrotum and now there are burns there and ive been experiencing sharp tingling pains What can i apply on my scrotum to heal the burns and stop the pain
Answer: Hi
Sorry about your experience depending on the extent of the burns i would advise that you keep the area as clean as possible so the burns dont get infected  Try to wear briefs that will ensure you do not sweat too much in the area The burns should heal over the next couple of days if you ensure its clean and not infected  If the burns are large and deep kindly see a doctor physically for assessment and course of management
