Suggest Treatment For Cut On Labia Minora After An Accident
My daughter (10yrs) fell on the beam tonight at gymnastics and has a cut on her labia minora. It has stopped bleeding now but had produced a fair amount of blood into her leotard. It stings and she won t let me clean it yet. Any advice? The cut goes horizontally across one labia minora. It looks deep enough to scar.

Hi...she definitely needs to be seen by a pediatric surgeon or a plastic surgeon. This will require suturing too. It will be painless and will be done under local anesthesia. Ask her not to worry and get her seen by a pediatric surgeon or a plastic surgeon.
