What causes private swelling and pain?

The first consideration for swelling and pain in the private parts is physiological factors, such as often wearing tight underwear and not paying attention to private hygiene, etc., and it cannot be ruled out that it is caused by pathological factors, such as vaginitis, vulvitis, etc.

1. Physiological factors

1. Clothing: If you often wear tight underwear, it will cause excessive friction to the private parts, resulting in swelling and pain in the private parts.

2. Private hygiene: If you do not take good care of and maintain your private parts on a daily basis, and do not wash your underwear frequently, bacterial or fungal infections may occur, which may cause swelling and pain in your private parts.

2. Pathological factors

1. Vaginitis: Vaginitis may be caused by the imbalance of private flora, which is also related to changes in hormone levels in the body (ageing, long-term use of contraceptives, etc.), and is also related to too frequent sexual life. It is contagious to a certain extent, and is prone to symptoms such as increased vaginal discharge and odor. It may also cause sexual intercourse pain, private swelling, etc., and some people may also experience private pain, frequent urination, etc.

2. Vulvitis: Vulvitis is mostly caused by infection with pathogens, such as frequent irritation from urine and vaginal secretions, and obesity can also easily induce vulvitis, which may cause swelling and itching of the skin in the vulva area, and may also be accompanied by pain and burning sensation.
