A member asked:

I have hurt my clitoris with a new vibrator. it's not sore at rest, only when i sit in certain ways or underwear touches it. will this go away? it's not red or swollen from what i can see. have been using lidocaine 2% and not offering any relief?

Clitoris likely got bruised and will heal on its own as long as you avoid further trauma. Do not use lidocaine as it may mask further trauma. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health! Safe sex: https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/safer-sex-guidelines
