I have uploaded a picture. the bruising is under the white stuff which is actually hard skin. it's not puss or oozing and there is no pain. a few weeks ago there was pain when it was fresh but it was because the skin was raw.
Brief Answer:
This looks more like a skin infection!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for the image.
I have reviewed it and it is more suggestive of a skin infection. I will recommend that you gently cleanse it daily with an antiseptic such as Iodine and report the progress to me. If this persists, then we will need to get it examined by your primary care physician.
For the clitoris, it is a known side effect and this shouldn’t bother you.
