Hi Percy,
As someone who has suffered through the years with LS and at time find sex very painful, my advice for your relationship is not to put any pressure on your wife to continue to be sexually active while in pain or discomfort. I imagine this is a very scary time for her.
Have a read through the forum posts and you will pick up advice on what can help for others. Has she already been prescribed some steroid? Many seem to find it slow to clear things up so perseverence is key. Others have found coconut oil or emollients can help protect and moisturise the skin, baking soda and borax have each had some success with some women. Sugar and alcohol seem to cause many people flare ups, and stress too, so try to keep calm.
Your wife may find this forum a useful source of support and guidance too
