Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
It could be a genital sore. If sexually active, we have to rule out possible causes among which STI (sexually transmitted infections) has to be considered first.
Herpes and non-herpes infections like molluscum and chancroid can be a cause.
Non-infectious cause like a genital wart and superficial ulcers can also cause similar symptoms. Contact dermatitis is also a probable cause.
Because there are a variety of causes for female genital sores, it is important to visit a doctor for a diagnosis, as soon as possible. This will ensure that a person receives the right treatment.
If there is diagnostic confusion, a vaginal swab may be required to make a diagnosis.
As of now, you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like Aceclofenac/Serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief.
Wishing all the best
