Hi,
Sore and red clitoris can occur due to excess friction and lack of lubrication during sex or while using sex toys. Vaginal or urinary tract infections should also be ruled out by vaginal smear, urine routine, urine culture and sensitivity. Ice pack covered with a thick cloth can placed to reduce the discomfort. Avoid any sexual activity for a few weeks. Maintenance of vaginal hygiene is also essential.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
