White patches on sides of clitoris

Having clitoral discomfort again. I pulled back the clitoral hood and saw some white patches around the edge. I can't tell if it's smegma or LS white patches. It's too sensitive to scrape hard enough to get it off. If it's smegma, should I be cleaning it off? I find this so stressful. Feel weepy. Back to the sensation of needing to urinate frequently again and thinking it's connected to my clitoris. (Feels stimulated) sorry to bring this up again , but I need some support.

    What is LE? I have the same thing. And I am scared and desperate. I squeezed the white stuff out, and my clit is unbearably painful. I also feel stimulated. And it's painful. I just found this forum. I would be really grateful if you could respond to me and let me know what if you learned what it was and how you treated it.

      It sounds to me like you have an abscess and from what I understand from this forum, I think you should see a GP or Gyno.

      LS is an autoimmune disorder of the vulva. it is characterized by itching, painful splits in the skin, white patches of skin, sometimes fusing of skin..

      Do you have other symptoms?

      If you read what 2kb wrote to me on this thread, you might get a better understanding of what you might be dealing with.

      I understand your fear. Hang in there. This is a great and caring bunch of ladies. Ask any question you have.
