I use baking soda scrubs to relieve the pain and it really seems to help.

I use Cetaphil soap (gentle on your skin) for bathing all over and Manuka honey at night on the lesion and tea tree oil in the daytime. Hope this helps 😁

I normally use dye free antiseptic skin cleanser on the part of my body that is flared up at the time and it helps my bumps go down faster

I also use monistat care chaffing relief powder gel to reduce moisture under my breasts and inner thighs.
