Intense vaginal itching that has not responded to any other attempts to relieve. This worked the best of anything I have tried and was a God-send.

This cream works within a few minutes for pain from hemorrhoids. It is easy to use, a smaller than pea-sized dot of it is plenty, and tends to burn slightly for a minute or less, then the pain is gone. The only drawback is its effect doesn’t last more than a couple of hours and it says not to exceed six applications in a day. It is pricey but it can be purchased without a prescription at okdermo. I suggest ordering before you need it because it usually has to be ordered and the wait can be…painfully long. I bought it to use to prevent electrolysis pain but so glad I had it when I had a flare-up!

Have some flare-ups of hemorrhoids, this stuff really works in minutes, a pea-size amount smeared on the anus is all you need, no discomfort in minutes, it lasts for maybe an hour but hey, I’m good all day after that one amount.
