Brief Answer:
Do nothing for now!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

For now, do nothing. These are minor clots caused by bleeding into the skin following trauma during sex and more so because it was rough. I will suggest that you consider being more gentle during future sexual activities.

This should resolve all by itself in 1-2weeks as the body sucks up all the blood. Do nothing and stay calm, relaxed and reassured. This is the best approach unless something else comes up which would be very unlikely.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
