Having Pain Around The Clitoris. Is The Skin Tearing? Cause And Treatment?


Hello , I am experiencing a very sharp pain either on or around my clitoris , I have not engaged in any kind of sexual act nor have I shaved and accidentally hurt myself . I can only feel the sting when I move around. I recently took a look and it looks as if a small piece of skin might possibly be tearing , please help the sting is very uncomfortable .

As your problem there may be underlying infection in the clitoris , because of that there is cracking of skin.
first of all i will advise you to maintain vaginal hygiene.
and you will have to take analgesic and local ointment . if there is redness or inflammation you may also need antibiotic.
