Urine seems to be the most irritateing to my vulva skin and especially if concentrated makes skin burn. If you have this problem,what do you do to calm down the irritation or protect the skin from irritation from urination??

you might also like to try the vitamin E suppositories (for vaginal and rectal use), they are made form coconut and palm oils with added vit E. Many of us find those soothing too. I put one in every night.

As well as drinking plenty to hydrate I always wet a tissue and wipe myself down there after a wee

i continued to do this once the vulvodynia had gone, but one day thought - hang on, why would my own body produce something that was detrimental to it? Plus the Ph of water is so much higher than out natural Ph down there. So I stopped the post-wee washing. However, you could try it, as I know lots of women on vulvodynia forums find it helps.
one other thing you could try is to take suppliements that improve urinary health. Cranberry extract is the common one (beware of cranberry juice as it usually has added sugar). I read a recent study that showed that cranberry did little on its own but was beneficial if taken together with lingonberry.
