Suggest Remedy For Swollen Clitoris After Masturbation

Posted on Fri, 3 Jul 2015

Question: Hi doctor, For the last three days ive been masturbating with a shower head. I now have a dull pain in my clitoris, i think it is swollen and it feels desensitized. I dont feel as aroused. Should I worry about this? Or will it heal on its own?

Brief Answer:
Have Sitz baths

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear and thanks for your query.

In my opinion there is nothing to worry about.
Dull pain in your clitoris is from rough rubbing of shower head with your vagina.

Hence until you will be painless ,please stop masturbating .
Have Sitz baths with warm water three to four times in a day,you can add betadine

All the best and fast recovery

Thank you doctor for your quick reply! It doesnt hurt to touch my clitoris though stragely but I just feel a dull , sometimes sharp pain in the area. I didnt rub the shower head I just turned it to massage setting and let the water hit my clitoris. Also it hurts a little while peeing and I sometime feel like peeoing even when I dont need to. Earlier when my bladder was full I used to feel orgasmic, now I feel nothing. Is that fine? Im really worried Ive hurt my nerves. Sorry for the repeat questions. Im on an island in Scotland with not many doctors/clinics around. Thankfully there is internet.
Look forward to your response.

Brief Answer:
Don't worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear again and it's my pleasure to help you.

Don't worry because you haven't damage any clitorial nerves ,because they are internal and you haven't reason they may be damaged .

A dull ,sometimes sharp pain in your clitoris associated with little hurt during urination ,may be from small lesions in that area.

If you have possibilities please upload a picture of this area.

Having Sitz baths with over the counter creams with hydrocortisone in the swollen area can help you.

Best regards

Hi doctor ,
Yesterday I had sharp stabbing pain from lower abdomen to vagina while at work and so I saw an emergency medic on site. He was male so I couldnt show him but he said there might be some temporary nerve damage and gave me ibuprofens. He did urine test and there was no infection. Today The whole clitoris and urethra area is numb. There also seems to be a stronger smell and some discharge. More than normal. I am getting more worried now. Ive take some photos and uploaded. They are not very clear asI am self taking them. Hope it's helpful to you.
Thank you for your help.

Hi again.

Sharp lower abdominal pain with strong smell vaginal discharge may be due to vaginal infection or bacterial vaginosis.

Take much more fluids and cranberry tea because they may help on your symptoms.
Except ibuprofen for the clitorial numbness you can try with cool compresses.
If the symptoms do not subside after three days of following these tips, a vaginal swab will be need.

As per your reports ,everything seems to be normal.
