A member asked:
I had sexual intercourse a few days ago and noticed some swelling in the clitoral area, as well as extreme sensitivity. why is this? is it cure-able?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
To be determined: give it a few more days. Might be trauma/friction injury. Versus other concerns like infection. If any progressive worsening or no improvement in 24-48 hours, get checked out. If there's any spreading redness or temperature get checked out. If there's any discharge or urinary complaints, get checked out. If your partner gives you any suspicion, get checked out. Stop sex till determined/gone
