OB near urethra

[bluebell1]

Oh man,,,the pain is almost unbearable. Any soothing ideas? I was told by the ER doc to use plain Vaseline to coat everything before I go. It helps somewhat...

is the pain constant or more when you pee? have you tried antivirals?

I've been having the same issue. Like almost passing out, clutching the wall, stifled screams kinda pain. For me there is a constant level of discomfort and sometimes shooting pain, but it's beyond description when I actually urinate. The NP's guess was because it looked there was a sore right over the uretha opening and possibly into it. I've been on antivirals for 5 days now and it's getting better. Things that helped me:

* Using hypo allergenic baby wipes with aloe instead of toilet paper.

* Applying baby powder after. Again, hypoallergenic, with corn starch, zinc, aloe and chamomile.

* Lysine ointment like for cold sores. I applied directly to the sores on my labia.

I also happened to have a UTI and yeast infection at the same time. Yay for me on a trifecta. NOT!!! lol So, getting medical attention quickly I think is key. Hope that helps, at least a little.
