Can bacterial infection worsen with improper hair removal?

Patient's Query

I have bacterial infection or bacterial vaginosis and I use hair removal for private area it wasn't recommended for private area and I have BV and also I use this hair removal and the problem became more complex after I use hair removal

Answered by Dr. Mohit Saraogi

When it comes to bacterial infections or bacterial vaginosis (BV), it's important to be mindful of certain practices, like using hair removal products in the private area. Using hair removal in that area can sometimes disrupt the natural balance of bacteria, making it easier for infections like BV to occur or worsen. In fact, the hair removal process itself can create small breaks in the skin, providing an entry point for bacteria. To help with the current situation, I recommend avoiding further use of the hair removal products and focusing on gentle, non-irritating hygiene practices. It's also a good idea to see a dermatologist for proper evaluation and treatment of the BV. They can provide guidance on managing the infection and preventing future recurrences.

You may have a hernia. This occurs when internals are pushed through a weak part in a muscle. Although there is no pain now, it should be examined by a doctor. They may advise treatment such as an operation to repair the damage and avoid further problems.

Last night, while masturbating, i got a friction burn (of a size of pea) on my glans penis & it became reddish .... my semen came in contact with it for some minutes.... will it lead to the formation of anti sperm antibodies?

Male | 25

A friction burn on the­ penis head can make it re­d and uncomfortable, especially if se­men touches it. Howeve­r, the risk of developing anti-spe­rm antibodies from this is low. To aid healing, ke­ep the area cle­an and avoid further irritation. If you notice any unusual symptoms or concerns, it's always wise­ to seek medical advice­.
