Cut from shaving on labia majora

Ok im 18 years old i shaved a few days ago & yesterday the hair was growing back causing an itch. i must have been scratching to hard because now i have little paper cuts on both of my lips & between them where the skin is suppose to be pink. it started to bleed so i grabbed a towel with warm water and rubbed it but i did it too hard and my lips swelled but the right lip is worse than the left. i thought it would help if i soak in a hot bath it didn't now today i have this whitish discharge no smell coming out of me the cuts burn like hell what should i do.  help me!

It happens often when I shave too, but I never really took too much attention to it. It usually heals after a few day. I talked about it to my doctor, and he told me it was because it is too dry. He told me to put on some hydratant cream (that do not contain parfum or other things like that) on the lips. I did it (and it does not have to be cream made for genitals in particular) and it worked very well to calm down the itchy feeling and the need to scratch! So I stopped scratching and it healed afterward. The white discharge is normal if in small amounts, it happens all the time so maybe you never noticed it before you had that problem. If the discharge is very heavy then I guess it must not be normal.
If my advices do not work and it gets worse, I recommend to go see a doctor just in case. Be very careful when shaving, I recommend to not shave near the place between them where the skin is pink. Just trim that part and it should be fine enough.
