I have LS and for quite a few years now I found at times unbearable. Constant itching, soreness, even painful. What I've found helps a lot is - I put ordinary table salt and bicarbonate of soda into hot water and using a cloth press it to my vagina area, the hotter the water the better, do this several times rinsing the cloth through the solution then gently pat dry, I then apply a little epaderm cream. I do this morning and night.

    Worth a try - especially if you're British and can't get the Borax treatment that's often recommended on here (Borax is banned in the UK).
