Suggest Treatment For Red Sore On Clitoris

Hi. my problem is that I have a red sore on the clitoris.. it only gets sore when touched. the hood covering that parts backs up way too much exposing it and at times there is some whitish stuff around it. i am not in any relationship or have a partner. this condition started off a month back.. your advice is highly valuable since i find it uncomfortable to talk about it to anyone.

Hello ma'am and welcome.

It would be best to visually examine the affected region, and so it would be wise to visit a doctor. But if you are not comfortable with this, then I do recommend you avail our premium service and write to me using our premoum service wherein you can attach images of the affected region to our discussion for my examination.

In the meantime, with the information at hand I do assume this could be something completely harmless like folliculitis which could have been triggerred by shaving, hair removal, friction, etc; caused to the region. But then again, only a physical examination will help confirm that diagnosis.

Best wishes.
