I'm really concerned because I've noticed a swelling near my clitoris. I'm a virgin, and there's no bleeding, but one side has been swollen for about three days now. It's super itchy sometimes, and I can definitely feel the swellingit hurts a lot. I always keep my whole body clean and wash my vagina every time I pee. I can't figure out why this is happening, and it's really scary. Can you help me understand what's going on?
