Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Cuts on the vagina and swollen vagina is most likely due to the vaginal infection, most likely fungal infection of the vagina.
Other common reason for such symptoms is urinary tract infection.
I will suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist to get properly examined internally, a vaginal swab examination should be done to confirm the diagnosis and get appropriate treatment timely.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
