Well what you did was give your labia a chemical burn from the Veet. Your labia will swell a bit as well as get red and that is normal for the reaction. Taking ibuprofen will help if you can tolerate it as much as 800 mg with each meal. Sitting in cool bath water will be soothing. Luckily it will get better fairly quickly, give it a few days.
