Suggest Treatment For An Abrasion Near The Clitoris
Hi, I had a heavy gym session and notice discomfert after wards. The next day I noticed swelling to the right of my clitoris and a small red abrasion. The next day it was still very swollen and I also noticed a yellow circle where the abrasion was. I have been using antiseptic cream. What should I do?
Hello dear Understand your concern. Abrasion occur due to friction or stretching injury while having gym/exercise. It lead to development of abrasion and that lead to inflammation and produce swelling. Take following advice: Apply antiseptic like neopsorine/bacitracin every 4-6 hourly. Sitz bath with leukewarm water with added providine iodine that help in faster healing. (three times per day) You can also use hydrocortisone ointment to reduce the swelling. Avoid exercise and any activity/position that hurt the clitoris. You can protect the abrasion part with pure cotton soft cover. Avoid sweats in clitoris area. Avoid to wear undergarments during rest or wear pure cotton loose undergarment. V-Vaginal wash application also help in maintaining the proper hygiene. Hope this may help you Best regards Dr. Sagar
