What Causes Cuts In The Vagina After Intercourse?

Hi, my boyfriend and I have been having sex for a year now, but for the first time last week I ended up with cuts or sores not on my vagina, but near the vaginal area. I noticed during the sex I was dry and there was some friction and the sex was quite rough i could feel the rawness of my skin but the cuts or sores didnt appear until a day or two later. Could you possibly now what I have?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello dear
I understand your concern
Your symptoms could be a vaginal infection like bacterial vaginosis.
I would suggest to consult the gynecologist and undergo swab test to confirm the infection.
Doctor will give following advises:
Put suppository containing clindmycin and clotrimazole
Lactobalcillus orally or vaginally.
Take warm water sitz bath with added betadine.
Wash the vagina with warm salted water and then apply apple cidar vinegar
Wear pure cotton loose inners
Maintain pelvic hygiene by using v-vaginal plus wash
Drink plenty of water and eat healthy diet.
Avoid sex till you get better and use water based K-Y lubrication during intercourse.
Hope this may help you
