Injury to the skin of the vulval area can be very painful and it is a site prone to infection like a cellulitis, folliculitis or even an abscess formation if you abraded/ injured your skin. I would strongly suggest that you see your GP so that he/ she can look "down there" and prescribe antibiotics if needed. In the meantime I suggest you mix 1L water(boiled and cooled) with a half cup course salt which you need to place in a basin that you can place on top of closed toilet lid that you can sit in for 30 min morning and night to keep the area clean. You still need to see your GP though.
