Peeled skin...

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

So I can't take the time right now to go through the memories right now...in some pain and i donno if this has come up.

My boyfriend and i were having sex and he has his pants on, just unzipped. I was on the bottom and as we were going at it i felt his belt rubbing my clit area. It kinda felt good, but hurt too so after a few minutes i couldn't take it and undid his belt. Then we started going again and his button started rubbing there. I just said fuck it becuase i didn't want to bother.

After we were done i went into the bathroom and looked, and my clit is swollen and a layer of skin is taken on. I want to know if there is ANYTHING i could put on it to make it a. stop hurting b. stop being so swollen and c. to try and heal fast.

Please help, or give me some place to go where it might have help. It hurts. :-(

I didn't know if that would work so close to to my opening...but i suppose i could just be careful putting on the neosporin. Thanks!

I wish i had some tea tree oil though...know where i could find it?

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

Thats good to know. When i first put it on it started to burn. Does it do that with you? And if it does do i just have to wait a few minutes or what?

[tiss-xx.livejournal.com]

ouch! you poor girl!

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

...You're telling me. X.x

[ktnzgtklws.livejournal.com]

OUCH!
Normally I would say Neosporin with pain reliever, but as that's kinda close to the vagina, I don't know how that might affect your natural bacterial balance. :-/
Regardless, aloe vera gel is always a safe bet, and mixing it with some tee tree or emu oil would provide some antiseptic properties.

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

Maybe if i'm super careful to not get it inside of me it would still be okay?

Aloe like the stuff you put on sunburns? Where do i get these oils?

[nmbr5wthabulet.livejournal.com]

I can get tea tree oil in the "ethnic" hair care section at Target/Wal-Mart

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Wal*mart's super close to me.

[jpress.livejournal.com]

tea tree oil is with the vitamins and other oils at my walmart. it was hard to find.

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

Thanks, i'll look both places and hopefully find it!

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I would hate to have it peeled and then burned. *shiver*

[songforpolly.livejournal.com]

i second the aloe vera, but only if it's not the gel stuff, it oughta be the actual goo straight from the plant if you can get it...

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

Drat...at my old house we had a plant, but here we don't.

Hydrocortisone cream, especially one with a cooling agent, is what I would use. Feel better soon!

Edit: Tea tree oil can be found at your local Whole Foods (or Vitamin Shoppe if that's closer) though I know at Whole Foods they charge you an arm and a leg for a wee little bottle.

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

Thanks for both. :-)

Never heard of hydrocortisone.

[hantastic.livejournal.com]

Oh god it's a blessing. I actually carry it in my purse! It's an anti-itch steroid cream (so don't use if you have problems with topical steroids) but the cooling cream I have helps with almost any vaginal problem, because it is super effective at cooling and feels so nice. Even though the cream's primary use is anti-itch, it's the ONLY thing that helps me when I have a bad sunburn.

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

Ohh sounds nice haha. Could i get it at like..a wal*mart or CVS/Walgreens store? I don't have those fancy whole foods stores around me...but maybe a vitamin shoppe.

[hantastic.livejournal.com]

You can get hydrocortisone at any drugstore. The brand I get is called 'LanaCort' and the type with the cooling stuff says 'cool creme' on it. It is absolutely okay to use on your vulva, but don't go cramming it up your vagina (not that you would haha). Dabbing it on your clit may be a bit painful at first because of the raw skin, but fan your hand over it (or better yet have your boyfriend be a peach and blow on it a bit to cool it down) and it'll feel loads better.

Haha oh wow I just realized the tube I have in my purse expired in October of 05 - whoops! Oh well, it's almost gone now and still works fine ;p

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much. haha i wish my boyfriend could do that but he's being a rotten peach and with his friends. :-P

haha, well it's good to know it has a long life span.

Any clue AROUND how much it would be? Haha, you'll probably have to guess since it's been 3 years.

[hantastic.livejournal.com]

It's not OMGZ expensive but a modest tube of it will probably be upwards of 10 bucks. You can probably snag a CVS brand tube for cheaper, but I've only ever seen LanaCort make the cooling one, and I would definitely buy a cooling one if I were you - it's ten times more soothing, and next time you have an itch ('girly' or otherwise) the cooling factor is like heaven.

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

You are so full of help haha. Thank you so much.

[hantastic.livejournal.com]

I do what I can :) You're very welcome and feel better soon! It's times like these when at least you have the advantage of a fast-healing vagina. I guess we women got lucky in that sense!

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

:-) Thanks. It better heal fast...i have a medevial fair to go to Sunday haha, and i don't want to be walkin funny. it's not that bad now that i look at it again. The swelling has gone down a little more, although still puffy, but just the first layer of skin was peeled. Thank goodness...haha.

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

medieval*

[hantastic.livejournal.com]

I'm sure you'll be fine by then if not totally back to normal. If I were you I'd stay as panty-less as possible until it's better; it'd be boxers and sweatpants for me for a while! You're lucky that where ever you are the weather is nice enough for a medeval fair this time of year!

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

Yea, i wore my boyfriends gym shorts over here commando and now i'm in my comfy work out pants sans undies. That's nice. Haha, well you may see it as great, but i HATE living in Florida. I wish i had seasons!

[min-song.livejournal.com]

florida does have seasons. two of them actually. summer and hurricane season.

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

Haha true smarty. I was GOOD seasons....like fall and winter. Watching the leaves change and a mild summer. Mmm, if only. haha.

[hantastic.livejournal.com]

Actually I live in the northeast and worship fall and would die without seasons, though winter is far too long up here!

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

Haha i love fall too, but i'm stuck here until i can move away. Summers far too long...like all year long.

[roseofjuly.livejournal.com]

I was gonna say hydrocortisone; I was surprised no one had suggested it yet.

[jennifer0246.livejournal.com]

sounds like a blister, which will likely get more painful before it gets better. i recommend cool cloths, being very gentle, and not putting too much stuff on it. if it's very painful a numbing medication like benzocaine might help (available in any drugstore/superstore), if the skin is broken and weeping/bleeding use a tiny amount of neosoporin or triple antibiotic ointment on the immediate area only, don't spread it about the vulva. see your health care provider if the pain or sore persists for more than a few days.

[toasted-undies.livejournal.com]

It doesn't seem to be a true blister, since it is open with my skin peeled back in little rolls, yucky, but i'll try the cool cloths. After i use the bathroom i try and put cold water on it to make sure my urine doesn't stay there, and that feels good, so thanks for the idea of cold cloths.

I'll keep an eye out for benzocaine, and i'll add some neosporin as well. Thanks for the help!

[jilliaun.livejournal.com]

They sell a medication in the "feminine" department at Rite Aid that is for numbing the vulva when you have a yeast infection or some other such irritation. I tried it before and... I couldn't feel my labia at all. Even when I poked it. I think it was called Vagicaine extra strength or something. And it was .. $4? Good luck.

Thanks!
