Hi there, I've read in various places on this message board about different types of vaginal pain and discomfort. I apologize if this is TMI, but I was wondering if you all wouldn't mind explaining those symptoms a bit more? I'm just curious as to what's "normal," if anything. The vaginal discomfort I feel occurs during flares and dissipates when the flare subsides. It is centrally located around the clitoris and urethra, and it feels like painful pressure, burning, and almost arousal. additionally, i often feel as if the labia minora are swollen, tender, and on fire. sometimes other areas, such as the vaginal opening or the perineum, are afflicted with similar effects. Also, it can simply hurt to sit. (For the record, I have no history of STDs or anything like that.)
