Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
The problem why you could be facing pain around vaginal area during intercourse could be due to lack of proper lubrication.
For pain, you can take analgesic medication like Ibuprofen. Sitz bath with warm water twice daily would help to overcome pain.
Abstain from sexual activities till the pain subsides completely.
Next time, ensure that there is enough lubrication before indulging in to the act. You can use water-based lubricants or moisturiser lotion to get good lubrication. It is also essential to relax and go with the act gently.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
