Q: MY Vagina

Everytime I have had sex my vagina seems to be irritated and get swollen, My inner lips swell up and like bubble. It hurts so bad i can barely walk, or put my legs together. After 2 days, the swelling goes down and its fine. What is wrong with me?

If you are having sex that lasts for quite a it of time and involves oral sex, multiple go rounds then some women find that the tissue can get inflammed or swollen.  Some women also seem to be more vulnerable to the rubbing and penetration aspect and have a local reaction.  You might try seing if shortening the experience helps; if applying a cool compress or ice pack (with a thin towel barrier) helps;  also a bath in soothing bath salts after might help.  If it does not resolve, I would get it checked out by an Ob/Gyn for your own comfort level.
