Not sure I can suggest anything, except perhaps petroleum jelly (which might be a bad idea, second opinion anyone?) to provide a bit of a protective layer. Sometimes it takes a good week for skin irritations in that area to feel better for me.
Just wanted to chime in with a suggestion in researching a menstrual cup (menstrualcups.org for the LJ community) or possibly cloth pads (cloth_pads) because I find they're both more comfortable than disposable pads and may help avoid this kind of discomfort in future. Feel better!
