Swollen vaginal lips

My boyfriend and I haven't seen eachother for a few months! About a week ago we saw eachother again for the first time . We have sex now All the time and now my vaginal lips are really swollen. I wouldn't have noticed it unless he said something but now they hurt a little when I touch them, is that just from having a lot of sex? Will it go away? Or do I have to go to the gyno? I'm out at school and i don't have a gyno out here and i fell a little uncomfortable going to see the male gyno on campus!! Please help!!

Lol it's due to friction... And a lot of four play and even if you think it's limubrucated (your cumming a lot) you are mistaken... A lot of four play and friction to this... And in some cases allergies... But I don't use condoms and I am checked for STDs, I have contraception the implamon.. The rod in my arm... But normal for a lot of four play and friction and not enough lube...

It could be an allergic reaxction to having a dog or car around. With all the touching that happens down there, if you are at all allergic to pets, and your boyfriend doesn't wash his hands after touching anything in the house, then you can get very swollen. It does''t get itchy, just swollen and it can take 1 hour to and entire day to go back down to normal. Just uncomfortable, really.

The best treatment for something for anything swollen would be to rest it and apply cold compresses while lying down. Don't try to walk or exercise as this will aggravate the swollen area because you will be applying friction and making that same redness and swelling get bigger. Much like a swollen or fat lip on your face, what you want to do is make sure nothing comes into contact with it. No kissing, no exfoliating, and definitely no rubbing.

It's best to refrain from sexual activity until the swelling is completely gone because if the swelling gets worse, it can lead to infection if the area gets damaged or cut. Don't apply any creams unless advised by a physician and if the swelling does not come down after 24 hours, check with you physician.

Okay, I have been away from my boyfriend for almost a month now. When we're toqether, we have sex way more than often. But since we've been apart, I haven't had sex at all. About 3days aqo I tried phone sex with my boyfriend. After my climax, I took a shower and felt irritated in the vaqinal area. Now for the past 2days my vaqinal lips are swollen & they're sensitive to the touch. I'm worried.!!
