Hi there, I recently purchased a new vibrator, the womanizer. It does clitoral stimulation through something they call ?air pulse technology?. Basically it blows and sucks air around your clitoris. The head piece creates suction tight around the clitoris (tight seal/ no air can escape). I was having some fun with it, and after I realized that I was having some sensitivity. I looked with a mirror and there appears to be a small cut/tear in the skin at the base of my clitoris. My questions is regarding possible air embolisms. I know it is possible to get an air embolism by blowing air into the vagina (especially if you have a tear or injury) but im not sure about this case. My worry is that the vibrator does blow air out as it does suck it back, but the head piece is suctioned tight around the clitoris, so if any air is being blown into the area with the cut, there is no way of it escaping due to the seal. Is this something I should be worried about? The vibrator is very powerful so there was allot of air going.
