Itching Of Clitoris. Treatment?

This is so embarassing, however on Wednesday by right side if my clitorous started itching and by Thursday night I was up a night trying not to scratch it. Now it looks like I scratched off the too layer of skin it hurts and it doesn't look like a blister. What should I do or what can input on it? It doesn't itch anymore now it hurts

Hello,

Above feature is mostly due to yeast infection or in contact with chemical subs/ soap/ bath products, sweating etc. You would apply antibacterial ointment or anti-fungal cream like Candid-B. Cortisone cream 1% can be useful if there is severe itching. These are quite effective.

For recurrent itching, you have to eliminate certain predisposing factor like diabetes, OCP, Cu-T, contact with chemical subs/ birth products/ soap etc.

Till then, maintain genital hygiene and keep the genital area dry as possible.
