Cut under hood of clitoris help!
Just today I noticed a cut under the hood of my clitoris. It looks like it's bleeding but it isn't. It's maybe a centimeter wide and red. It doesn't hurt, itch, or sting that I know of and it doesn't hurt when I urinate. I'm freaking out. I had sex three days ago but it wasn't rough (I got back with my old boyfriend who hasn't had sex with anyone but me). I wore tight lace underwear today that rubs a lot and doesn't have much cotton padding but I don't know how it could have cut me. How could this happen?? Is it herpes?? It looks like a paper cut kind of and everything I'm reading says it's herpes. I know I'm a hypochondriac and I was stupid to sleep with that other guy but please I"m freaking out and I feel so sick.
I'm sorry, since it was a different situation I didn't know if it would get noticed on an old post. Thank you!

If it matters, I was treated for BV with a gel that I had to insert vaginally. I heard it could cause a yeast infection and when I lifted my clitoral hood white chunky stuff came out (tmi I know) but I'm not having any other symptoms of a yeast infection.
