Suggest Treatment For Wound Near Labia After Shaving
Question: Hi, I have a question about something that I may have done while shaving my vaginal area. I now have an area that is about the size of a dime that is swollen and tender on the labium minus anterior side. What can I do to treat this?
Brief Answer:
Sitz bath twice daily
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I saw the attached picture.
This is a wound seen commonly after shaving injury.
This heals up in a week. Meanwhile sit in a small tub that contains warm water, antiseptic solutiona nd salt twice a day for 5 minutes. Dry up the wound area after this.
This will help in wound healing faster and keep away infection.
Let me know if you need any more help.
Regards
