Any Home Remedy For Swollen And Itchy Clitoral Hood

Hi, so, my clitoral hood I believe is really swollen and itchy. And I don t know how to relieve it.. I m currently on my period, and where the lips meet the clitoris/hood there is some white discharge kind of built up there. I m not sexuality active, kind of. The last time my boyfriend fingered me was probably 5or so days ago, and it just inflamed today. What do you think it is and are there some home remedies?

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Your symptoms could be due to due to contact dermatitis, trichomonas/fungal infection.
Friction caused by fingering are the aggravating factor.
I would suggest to consult the gynecologist and undergo swab tests from the clitoris to confirm the cause.
Treatment will depend on the test result.
Meanwhile take following advises:
Apply vagisil cream
Vaginal suppository of clingen and lactobacillus.
Tablet ibuprofen
Do not manipulate the clitoris
Wash vagina with warm water and then apply apple cidar vinegar
Wear pure cotton loose inners and avoid pefumed cosmmetics and soap.
Drink plenty of water adn take helathy diet.
Hope this may help you
