Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

For the past two days, I had painful sex. It feels like it is going to tear down there. It became unbearable, and it is hurting a lot.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

It seems like you have some vaginal infection or lack of lubrication or foreplay which is causing the problem. Proper foreplay and adequate lubrication will help you get relief from the pain. However, if you have a doubt then get yourself checked by a gynecologist and get a vaginal swab test done. Avoid having sex till then. Wear cotton panties and loose lowers. Maintain personal hygiene and take plenty of fluids. Wash your private parts with normal tap water every time when you use a washroom. Avoid using vaginal douches and creams.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
