Butt shedding, or peeling from pads? =$ Please answer!
Question Posted Sunday October 28 2012, 3:45 pm
Okie dokie so I have been having like allergic reactions to these pads I am on when I have my period. Im 13/f btw. But after Im off my period, and off the pads the rash goes away. What it is is a red sore skin that has small bumps and it is external. I have used this cream called cortizone but I am out of it now and Im off the pad so I have been hoping it will heal itself. On friday night, no one was home except me so I locked myself in the bathroom and took a good look at this sore redness. It has small bumps under the skin as I mentioned and I took my nail and started kind of scratching it to see if anything would come out. It was like a white powder that came out under my nail. It was sort of interesting. I tried researching it and putting as much info I knew into this one website that is specifically for butt rashes but no one knew of this sort of thing. I have told my mom before and do not give me the advice to visit a doctor because I can not. Im having difficult family issues. I reccently became a vegetarian 2 months ago (thought I would say that incase it might have something to do with it but I doubt it). I know no one on this website is an expert or a doctor but just tell me what to do please.
This rash type thing has been here for a month and a half. TOday, I went to see if it had gone down yet but it has not and infact when I looked at it, I felt the red spots and it was covered by a clear gross solid thing. It was like dried up skin so I decided stupidly to scratch the hard parts off. (btw I have also not had my period since I have gotten this stupid rash redness but my period has always been irregular). What should I do about this? Is there an at home solution? I am not visiting a doctor like a said earlier. Please help me!
Having said that, I know someone who is allergic to the bleach they use to bleach the cotton in the pads. She switched to bleach-free, natural style pads, which she bought from vitacost.com, and the problem went away, never to return.
