Vaginal dryness
Vaginal dryness can be caused by stress, poor life hygiene (alcohol or tobacco abuse), medications or certain contraceptive pills. The intense hormonal variations occurring during menopause are also one of the major causes of vaginal dryness.
In case of vaginal dryness, use a mild cleanser for washing, wash the genital area no more than twice a day, and use a soothing cream. We also recommend you consult a physician.
Varicella
Varicella (chickenpox) is the most contagious of childhood diseases. Caused by the herpes virus, it appears primarily between the ages of three months and ten years.
To provide relief from itching caused by chickenpox, the child should take a hot bath with a softening and soothing cleanser, then a soothing cream should be applied to the dried skin. We also recommend you consult a physician.
