Time will Heal: I am not sure what we can do here for you other than to remind you that damaged or injured skin heals with time. I would not advise putting any further product on this delicate tissue, but letting it heal on it's own.

Don't use NAIR there: NAIR should NOT be used on vagina ! Options – use washcloth soaked in cold water or even ice water as a compress x 15 minutes. No not apply ice directly to skin. Petroleum based lubricants/ jellies/ lotions (Aquaphor ointment, Vaseline) or aloe can help to maintain moisture. Hydrocortisone cream 1 % can be applied for significant inflammation. For blistering – consult with your doctor.
