Hello. This is a very mild irritation, so if it is not bothering Pepper, it is best to leave things along. Using an inappropriate medicine, even an over the counter topical, can irritate things further. If it does seem to bother her, do ask you veterinarian to examine the skin & see if any treatment is appropriate. Thanks for contacting Pet/Coach.
