Burning And Discoloration In The Clitoris After Using Hair Removal Cream. What To Do?

I'm hoping you can help about my clit. A couple weeks ago I stupidly used Nair(the hair removal product) down there and it started to burn my clit afterwards. Then I noticed a week or two later that the lips of my clit, no my vagina, just my clit are black on the edges. Like noticeable black. It was all pink before, what do I do to get rid of the black?

Hi,
Thanks for the query.

If usage of hair removal cream damaged the superficial layers of the clitoris, that will take some time for regeneration.
If you are not having any symptoms like pain, irritation etc. now, you may not need any treatment.
The tissue can get replaced by its own.
If you are having any problem due to that, you once consult gynecologist and get examined.
As mucosal surface comes there better to avoid topical creams as much as possible.

Take care.
