Extreme clitoral swelling and discomfort

Posted , 3 users are following.

Okay so my sexual partner went down on my exactly one week ago. I have never been able to come from anything other than a vibrator but I felt I was getting close so he was working really hard. It hurt but at the same time felt good so I didn't ask him to stop. I was a bit sore the following 2 days to no surprise but then by the 3rd day I notice my clitoris was very swollen (kind of hard) and tender, not normal. It hurts to walk, sit, go over bumps, close my legs fully, everything! I tried warm baths and air drying the area but didn't really touch the area much because of the tenderness and I didn't want to irritate it further. Finally after day 5 I slowly pulled the clitoral hood back to look and noticed some off white (almost looked like a scab does when wet) and it looked very inflamed and "cut open". I had 2 baths with Epsom salts and tried pouring a bit of the water on the area to flush out bacteria that I thought may be stuck under the skin. But now I have a few lesions on the inside of my inner labia that look almost like a cancre sore and sting to touch. I tried putting some polysporin complete on the clitoral part which did ease the pain quite a bit temporarily but I'm at a loss of what this could be. I have slept with him 7 times and 3/7 he went down on me and I never experienced anything like this afterwards. I was thinking i've developed an infection under the clitoral hood but then these other sores showed up suddenly so now I'm unsure if a bacterial infection could cause that.

Also I know I need to see a doctor which I will asap but since its Christmas time my doctors office was closed today and will be tomorrow as well so I was unable to get in to see him.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

    See a doctor to take a biopsy for diagnosis. Then a treatment can be accessed.

    sounds painful and it could be a number of things, rather than guess it's better for a doctor to treat you.

    Did you find out what this was? Same thing happened to me after sex, what was it? Just a cut?
