I know I was really stupid but I was trimming my pubic hair before shaving it because it dulls up the razor and causes irritation. The scissors I used were very small, similar to the pairs of scissors you find on swiss army knives. I was hunched over on the toilet with my legs widely spread and was clipping close to my entrance, I couldn't see and somehow accidentally cut myself. This was Sunday (yesterday). I took a shower directly afterwards and there was only slight bleeding. Since then, I've been having a weird sensation down there not exactly pain but not comfortable either.
I'm 18 and told my mother, who advised me to find where I cut myself, clean it with hydrogen peroxide, and dress it with antibacterial ointment. I took a look just now and discovered I couldn't find any cut. Upon further inspection, I realized my right inner lip appeared to be slightly split in one area, as if I had cut straight through the edge just a little bit. This is nearly on the inside and it's a bit sensitive in the entire region. I didn't notice any whiteness and there was some pinkness in the general area but didn't seem any more than normal. There has been a small amount of blood on my panties, but I'm expecting to start my period sometime within the week as well.
I read a post that said not to use antibacterial ointments or anything on the inner area of the vagina so I'm not really sure what to do besides bath and make sure to keep it clean though it's constantly moist. Also, it does burn when I pee - not when actually peeing but when I'm finished and some drips down. Please help? I don't want to do anything to make it worse but at the same time, I'm wondering if I should be doing anything more. Please get back to me ASAP!
For now i'd say just keep it clean like you have been doing so far and keep an eye on it for a few days. If it becomes inflamed and swollen or showing other signs of infection (coloured discharge from the wound etc) go and see your doctor, otherwise it should be fine after a few days.
