What Does Burning Sensation While Using Tampon Suggest?

Hi so I ve been using tampon for a long time now and have had discomfort in the past from wearing them too long or while playing sports. But lately I have had to change my ramping every hour or two because it gets so uncomfortable and starts to burn. It s only while on my period and it really burns to pee or even wear a tampon sometimes.

Hi.
Tampons are more prone to bacterial vaginal and urinary tract infection and also leads to skin irritation and itching. Your symptoms are due to use of tampon only. It is advisable to use sanitary pad instead of tampon for better hygiene and health.
Thank you.

Dr. Manan
