It is absolutely safe to apply it on the private part, but only outside and not inside the vagina.
Next Steps
Ointment can be applied on the outside area, if medication needed for the vagina inside, use candid pessary. It should be kept inside vagina, at night before you go to sleep with clean hands. Use it for 6 nights.
