Hello,
Swelling and dark purple colored vaginal wall suggests injury/ trauma to the vaginal wall. I suggest you to avoid sexual activity for few days. You may consult your gynecologist if the swelling does not resolve within few days.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
