i have never heard of menstrual blood infecting a clitoris, but i'm no doc. Just make sure you're gently cleaning with non-irritating soap and water (exterior of vulva only, don't want soap inside, that's just not good for you), and you should be alright. Perhaps what happened was that the blood dried and was kind of rough and scratched up your clitoris, and that's what caused the stinging. If my clit receives too much... er... chafing action, it stings, but goes away after a couple of days.
It sounds like you are using pads: perhaps try a menstrual cup to avoid blood contact with your clitoris?
