What Does Severe Pain In The Vagina Indicate?

Hello, sometimes I get shooting pains from deep inside my vagina and it radiates up to the right side of my chest. It is like stabbing pain and is extremely painful. If I put a heat pack on my chest and lay down it goes after 20 minutes or so as if nothing happened ay all. This happens to me a few times per year. Any ideas what is causing this?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.


I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.





This is usually self limiting and may not indicate any disorder however, in some cases urinary or STD may be present if this last for more days. I will suggest you keep the private parts clean and dry. Use of Lactic acid containing vaginal wash at Bath time is advisable. Use of Condom, over the period of next 2 weeks while having sexual activity is advisable.


STD tests is done then in case of positive you can have a week long course of Doxycycline. Orally twice a for a week. Anti-fungal agents like Fluconazole once a week. A local ointment containing Clotrimazole and Clindamycin twice daily for a week to be applied on the private parts and vaginal tablets of Clotrimazole and Clindamycin at night for 7 days.





Hope I have answered your query.
