Hi
Welcome to the forum!

Rough sex or dry vagina can cause bruising and contusion of the labia. Since it is well supplied by blood vessels, the area looks bluish or dark. You can apply a cold compress. Use anti-inflammatory tablets. If the swelling does not subside in another day or two do consult a gynecologist. Refrain from sex until the swelling subsides.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!

i have tried putting a cold compress on it hasnt helped and all. i certainly wasnt going to have sex while im in that sort of shape down there. the thing was the sex wasnt rough and there was plenty of lubrication and the sex didnt hurt it wasnt until i woke up. i have never had this before and have had rougher sex than wat i had the other night

I am sorry it is difficult to comment further. Please consult a gynecologist.
