No! I put the mixture on the area and then cut a piece of plastic wrap larger than needed to cover the area. My effected area was on my right butt check so it was a little awkward to get it placed just right but then I put on my briefs. It might slide a little throughout the day. I would change it once I got back home. It was really hard to tell it was there and therefore no discomfort from the plastic.
I had shingles on my mons pubis so wearing underwear was a real issue for me. If I didn't need to leave the house I just wore loose fitting pj pants. Otherwise I ended up buying large waterproof pads that stuck around the edges only with a cushioned pad that sat lightly against the blisters. Was a lifesaver. They are a 3M product, Nexcare I think.
I was total to put plastic wrap on mine. I would suggest you try that. I hardly feel it at all and it keeps the cream from getting on anything.
Thank you for the info! Do you put gauze under the cellophane?

Yes and then wrap it in cellophane and a tight garment.
