What Is A Raw Spot Above My Clitoris?
Question: I had what looked like a raw spot (I think my boyfriend over stimulation My clit) above my clitoris and it looked like two scratches but then I notice white stuff that kind of looked like cottage cheese so I peeled the skin and now it looks like a open wound kind of. I think I have a yeast infection, could this be a sore coming from that?
Brief Answer:
Can be peeled skin due to friction rub.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
The sore that has developed on the skin seems to be due to a friction rub. This is not likely to be related to an infection. Application of local antiseptic cream like Neosporin H will help in healing. Avoid having intercourse for a few days and try to keep the area clean and dry. This should heal gradually in a week.
I hope this answers your query. In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out. Wishing you good health.
Regards,
Dr. Rakhi Tayal
