Have Swelling On Clitoris. Sore, Itchy And Hurts. Found Hair From Swelling. Cure?
I am 25 years old. I have had swelling on my clitoris for about a month now. It is very sore and itches sometimes, but also hurts. I applied some heat one day and over night the swelling decreased and there seemed ot be drainage. The next morning I saw a small hair sticking out from where the swelling had been. I pulled it and a long hair came out...about 1.5 inches. I thought it was done, but I had the same thing happen to me all over again these past two weeks...how can I fix this problem? Will it continue to reaccur? (I am a virgin)

Thanks for using HCM
Your symptoms are more in favour of skin infection.
I prefer antibiotic like tab. Amoxicillin and clavulanic acid 650 mg 3 times a day for 5 days for these kind of skin infections.
You can also take paracetamol to reduce inflammation and pain.
Keep wound clean and dry.
Wash your inner wears and sun dry.
Get well soon
