General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
The cut and discharge what you are experiencing on your labia is mucosal abrasion caused due to infection.
Kindly wash the area with mild antiseptic like Savlon twice a day. Apply Soframycin skin cream on the wound twice daily. Abstain from sexual activities till the wound heals. Wear loose fitting cotton undergarments to keep the area ventilated.
Continue the course of antibiotics for your urinary tract infection which you have started. Drink plenty of fluids and citrus fruit juices as keep yourself well hydrated.
Wish you speedy recovery.
