    Help burning coming from vagina.

    Ok so normally when I have a flare everything hurts and it is mostly focused inside my vagina. Is this normal?? And what can I do...it is so uncomfortable right now.

    Also girls when you have a flare is it also along with your period? Mine seems to be that way...however my period has not really shown up yet and this has been a week long flare.



    Diagnosed with IC 3-30-2003

    Flare ups 1 time a month lasts for days.

    A flare can hit you at any time.. And its very painful and can hit with no ryme or reason And it can cause alot of burning...I use tums for the burning or one teaspoon of baking soda in an 8 ounce glass of water..I have to take pain pills for the pain.

      uti

      i can always tell the difference between my flares...and my uti's

      flare burning is up more near the uthera
      uti burining / pulling..is near the vagina

      for me, at least
      so it might be a uti

      but dont freak out..i thought for sure a uti would cause me a huge flare
      and it didn't
      Quit ELMIRON due to hair loss
      Cystoprotek ROCKS!

      find me on FACEBOOK -
      search my email [email protected]

      Current Meds:
      AM Cystoprotek & ATARAX 50mg
      Dinner CYSTOPROTEK
      PM Elavil 25mg

          I didn't develop IC until after a hysterectomy, but I know from posts by others that flares are not unusual with menstruation. It's hard to know exactly which area is hurting with a flare --- the vagina is so close to the urethra that sometimes it's impossible.

          I hope you feel better very soon.

          Warm healing thoughts,
          Donna
          Stay safe

            Dr told llme you can feel it anywhere down there. There are so many connected nerves. Vaginal stuff can be hormonal too. I was very low on estrogen which started this first long flare in over 10 years. Hang in there!

              Thanks. I know my flares are associated to my period. They always have been. On the nose every month. I am feeling better just super bloated and yucky from the period that is here.
