Itching inside the lip of the vagina
I am experiencing an itch from last 3-4 days and it hurts when I itch. I used a self arousing vibrator before this happened and maybe caused too much friction and it wasn't fully cleaned. It does not hurt to pee or bleed but hurts when I itch.

Itching with soreness after friction from a toy, especially if it wasn't fully cleaned, is usually local irritation or sometimes a mild yeast flare, not an infection from the device itself. No pain while peeing or bleeding is reassuring.
Next Steps
Keep the area clean and dry, avoid further friction for a few days, and clean sex toys thoroughly before and after each use.
Health Tips
See a gynaecologist if the itching doesn't settle in a few days, or if you notice discharge or swelling.
