Feeling Sore After Urination, Abdominal Discomfort. Treated For Vaginitis. What Is Wrong?
Question: I have been having some trouble for the last couple of months. After I wipe when I'm done peeing, it's extremely sore. I have some abdominal discomfort and it's heightened when I have my period. I have been to my doctor twice and both times she treated me for Vaginitis, giving me a cream that I insert internally for 5 days. The pain goes away but usually comes back a couple of weeks later. What's wrong with me?
Hi there.
Read your history with interest & reviewed your description of clinical events et al.
Understand you are a virgin. By your own admission, been with men & trust have indulged in oral sex & /or being handled using the fingers or actively masturbate. Please correct me if wrong. All this could cause an UTI (urethritis. It could be quite simply arising from a localised 'friction burn' from excessive handling in recent past.
I would suggest objectively getting a simple urine routine test done at a local laboratory & get back to me with the reports/findings. Am of the opinion, in the interim, plenty of oral fluids; possibly a glass of cranberry juice mornings; a urinary alkaliniser (eg citalka) taken three times daily; a beer (alcoholic or not depending on your preference, religious leanings etc to help flush out any UTI may just be what is required sans any medication. Upon viewing the urine report, if any infection exists, treat with appropriate antibiotic while continuing above mentioned regime.
Do hope this answers your query & the problem is resolved soon. Cheers & Good Luck!
