Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Swelling of labia minora what you are experiencing could be due to allergic reaction.
Kindly do the following to overcome it.
1. Clean the area with mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily.
2. Apply Hydrocortisone cream over it after drying.
3. Take Tablet. Levocetirizine once a day.
4. Use vaginal pH balancing solution like 'v wash' regularly.
5. Abstain from sexual activities till the symptoms subside completely.
Maintain good personal hygiene. Your symptoms should subside gradually.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
