Suggest Remedy To Heal Cut On The Clitoris

I severed my clitoris with a pair of scissors when I was trimming my hair--just above the opening for urination. The cut is right down the middle (from the top) before the urination hole. The cut seems to have caused the skin to spread out vertically--so how will the cut heal?

Hi,

I guess your concern is that you had accidental cut while trimming. Getting an accidental cut while trimming private part hair is quite common. The private part area is not accessible so easily, as you do for your thighs and legs. But there is little lack of information.

You haven't shared the below information:

- how much was the cut severe?
- did u have bleeding?
- still bleeding?
- after cut any problem while doing urine?

So its difficult at this moment for me to comment on its consequences. And moreover the cut is at private part. Its not easily accessible for you to keep observing every day to look for any improvement or further damage. After healing, the scar may cause some sort of discomfort to clitoris or urethra. The opening for urine, chances are minimal. You are just informing about scar, so I insist you to try out my suggestions:

1. better visit a nearby gynecologist as fast as possible,gynecologist are expert doctors about female anatomy. If there is any problem, she will treat it out in a precise way and if no problem, you get an expert opinion that you are out of danger,

2. next time be careful. Prevention is better than cure.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sudha Rani Panagar
