What Is The Treatment For Soreness And Swelling In The Perineum?

Last Saturday I had sex doggy style and was slightly sore around the perineum, which is not uncommon for me after this position since I m pretty small. The next day (Sunday), I had sex again with my boyfriend in a couple positions where he was entering from behind me. It was fairly rough. By night, I was still incredibly sore and in pain with a seemingly swollen perineum. The next couple days the area was still very tender with possibly a blister but swelling seemed to go down. I had been putting neosporin, which I d done in the past for tears after sex although this felt different -- I d never gotten swelling or a blister before. Nothing else around the vagina but minor itching and a whitish yeast-like but not really chunky discharge. By Wednesday, I noticed a sore which today is nearly healed but not quite. I ve still been cleaning the area with alcohol then applying neosporin. Then, today, I seemed to have some break-through bleeding despite being on the pill. I know I am stressed and had other symptoms like TMJ recently even before last week. Could it be just a yeast infection from rough sex and stress or should I be more concerned now about herpes or other STDs? My boyfriend and I have been together for several years and this has never happened.

Hi,
It seems that you might be having some minor injuries, cut and induration due to rough sex and changed some sexual positions.
This might have given infection on the part.
Go for one antibiotic medicine course for 3-5 days.
Apply antibiotic cream locally.
Keep local hygiene proper.
Ok and take care.
