Brief Answer:
apply cold compresses.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query to hcm,
The swollen labia is likely to be due to frictional injury during intercurse due to poor lubrication. This shall subside in next 48hrs, all you need to do is to apply cold compresses or ice packs locally over the swollen region for 15 min each thrice a day for 2 days. Avoid any friction again , so wear loose undergarments and clothes. It will heal slowly and naturally.

No you need not worry at all. If there is irritation over the swelling due to abrasion then you may apply ointment soframycin locally twice a day and that should help it heal faster.
