Swelling From Labia To Clitoris With Tiny Abrasions After Masturbating With Vibrator During Periods. History Of Herpes. Help?
So I am currently on my period and I masturbated with a vibrator this morning. Since then my left labia has swollen from my clitoris all the way down until it ends. It feels hard and also has tiny abrasions on it. I was diagnosed with herpes 12 years ago, but this is not like any outbreak I ve had before. It is also very itchy and has a funny smell.
Hello,
sounds like you may have rubbed some bacteria into or under the top skin layers.
If you have small lesions - you either might have been to excessive with the vibrator and caused lesions or you had the lesions before you used the vibrator. Whichever way - there`s a slight infection there. Sometimes this can in itself cause a herpes to "bloom" again - but the current symptoms are most likely not a herpes.
I would go to the chemists and ask for a mild creme or gel that acts antibacterial - you have to tell the chemists that it`s for the vulva area and must be a very mild creme/gel.
Keep the area nice and clean - best thing is to carry a soda bottle around with you - with some camomile tea (yes!) in it - every time you use the bathroom - whilst urinating pour some camomile tea ( can be cold not hot please) over the outside affected area - this way the urine won`t sting so much and it`ll make sure the area stay clean and calm.
If things get worse and the swelling increases you have to go see the doctor.
Good luck!
kind regards,
JR
