When you go over the various topics on this LS site you'll perhaps learn some things that works for many. Next to your ointment, for instance: baking soda baths and rinses, covering with coconut oil, or yes, emu oil if that's what makes you comfortable and other.
It is a bit of searching, lots of trial, sometimes error, to find out what works for you. I'll suggest that you browse the various topics to explore what could perhaps help your specific circumstances.
Don't hesitate to ask more questions. We're all her to help and share our findings.

Over ten years, me too. It's a constant battle isn't it? I use emu oil regularly after bathing or washing, use the dermovate about twice a week or whenever needed and vaseline if it gets to being sore as well. I've found that mild itching can go away after soaking in a tepid bath for 10 to 20 minutes sometimes and I always try that if the itching has returned sooner than usual.
Sitting in a sitz bath ( can buy plastic ones online) or spraying after urinating are quite helpful too as our urine is an irritant.
Unfortunately I take diuretics so have to pee often....but yes there times when no matter what you do it gets you and you just have to persevere, try varying your routine or your moisturisers or barriers etc. even stick a small bag of covered up frozen peas between your legs if you get burning ...and tell yourself "this too shall pass ".
