Does Amitriptyline help with the raw/swolen feeling?

Hello ladies, I was wondering if Amitriptyline helps with the feeling of rawness around the vestibule and the sensation of swelling?
My burning pain comes and goes now...Thanks for any info!

Hi Delilah, yes it helped with mine but I had to get up to 35mg before it had affect now I take 50mg of nortriptyline I don't have burning but I did have rawness and very red inflamed look down there.xx

Thank you Zarli! Do you still have redness? Does the med help with that too? How did all this start for you?

Yes the redness has gone and swelling too. I get itchy if I use the wrong soap or if I go for a swim but they gave me a cream which is working for that. My story is long starting 6 years ago, to cut it short 'V' raised its ugly head over night with neuralgia type pain, redness, rawness, itchy etc...
For me its the pain that was the worst I couldn't handle it and it scares me to even think about it to be honest. After many Doctors and specialist I was finely put on Ami starting at 10mg for aweek then up to 20mg until I got to 35gm which then stopped all SYMPTOMS for 4 years. Then it stopped working and I went on Lyrica and Nortriptyline and it went again.
That's the short of it...

Good Luck Delilah and I'm always here for you

my swelling is much less now.....but it took a dose of 50 mg to work....

Hi Delilah - Yes it helped me with the burning and the rawness - I was "lucky" in that I only needed a 10mg dose. I swopped to nortriptyline though - cos the side effects from the ami were too much.

Thank you ladies! I am so grateful for all of the wonderful women on this forum!
