Hello,

There are a few explanations for the numbness in the vaginal lip:

- if it does occur around the time you masturbate, it is due to trauma during the masturbation
- if not then, could be related to constipation or
- any local (vaginal) laceration or inflammation

If it will get repeated, then, should follow up with gynecologist.

All the best.
