Hi,
Since you have already got tested for STD, the other most likely cause could be due to the pressure. You should see your gynecologist anyway to exclude local causes and further treatment. You may apply ice-pack for relief of the swelling and discomfort. Lack of lubrication could lead to such instances. You may use lubricants prescribed by your doctor in future to avoid similar circumstances. Wish you good health.
