Little cuts or cracks on vagina. What could this be?
Okay, I almost positive this is not herpes or another STD because I have absolutely zero symptoms of anything. No odor, no painful urination, no burning or itching, no weird discharge. Everything is completely normal.
Except within the past month or so, I keep developing these little cuts in the area right above my clitoris. They sting slightly if touched but other than that, they don't cause me any discomfort. It's almost like the skin is splitting, kinda like dry winter skin or something. Usually they heal up within a few days on their own. I've been applying vagisil lately.
Does anyone know what this could be?

If someone has an std, they do not always show symptoms. I've known many women who have had std's and said they never showed any symptoms of having one, and the way they found out was going to a OBGYN. Getting regular check ups is not a bad idea, even if you "know" you don't have one, because like them, you could without even showing one symptom.
As for the little cuts, rough clitoral stimulation or too much, can cause irritation around the clitoris. Especially if you dry masturbate. I would suggest using a lubricant (even if you are not going to insert anything into your vagina) to lower your chances of having any form of dry cracking around the clitoris. If you do not like the use of lubricants, or are allergic, then perhaps after masturbation, apply baby oil or lotion to the affected area to help keep it properly moisturized.

I have no idea what it could be. None of us are doctors and even if we were it would be wrong to make a diagnoses over the web. We would need to examine you which cannot be done over the web. It is very possible that if you are sexually active, this would include fingering and oral sex, that you could have some form of an STD.
The fact that you have no symptoms is not quite correct. You have a symptom; "They sting slightly if touched." That may or could be a symptom.
See a doctor and get tested.
