Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
Your problem can be a local allergic reaction or genital herpes.It should be ruled out by showing a dermatologist.If you have used a latex condom recently then you can suspect an allergic reaction.In such case antihistamine drugs and calamine lotion will give you relief.If it is genital herpes then antiviral drugs like acyclovir for oral and acyclovir ointment for local application also can be considerd.Hope this may help you.
Let me know if you have any further query.
I find this answer helpful
