I’d like to say urethra pain after birth is a joke, but believe me, it happens. And it can be really bad. I’ve been there, done that, and so have many of my friends. I’m not just talking about the pain of a baby coming out, either. It’s the pain of having a bladder that wasn’t well before that happens.
Its a fact that women who have had babies and their urethras are much more susceptible to urinary tract infections, and that’s because the baby puts itself at risk by allowing urine to enter the vagina. That is why pregnant women need to be careful and see a doctor when a urinary tract infections happens.
It’s also why you may need to take a pregnancy test for your partner to make sure youre not getting pregnant too early.
Not everyone is effected the same way, but I suspect that urethral pain is much more common than people realize. I would imagine that the majority of people who experience this pain have had children early in their lives, and therefore are very sensitive to what happens to their urethras.
urethral pain is very common. In fact, it’s probably the most common urological problem that women experience. It happens in about 3% of women at some point in their lives, according to the Mayo Clinic. And most women will experience this problem during pregnancy. It can feel like a sudden burning or shooting pain in the upper part of the vagina.
The good news is that it can often be treated with some sort of local injection. The bad news is that it can also be a sign of something more serious (such as a kidney stone).
The urethra is a tube that runs through the pelvic area, from the bladder out to the vagina, and is essential in making the transfer of urine. So as the urethra is being damaged it is causing the vagina to be constricted, restricting the movement of urine and leading to a condition called urethral dyssyrosis or urethral stricture. The doctor will likely refer you to a urologist to have it checked out.
This is an interesting and somewhat rare condition; typically it’s only seen in older women who have had their hysterectomy. But as with any of the more common conditions, it’s important to see a doctor to rule out any medical conditions that may be contributing to the problem. It can be tricky to know what’s causing the pain, but the pain you’re experiencing may be a symptom, or it may be a symptom and not a problem.
I had a urethral stricture at age 14. Like many other women, it was a simple painful procedure where the doctor shaved the urethra and tied a suture in place. This was because it was a common myth that urethral strictures could cause severe pain. I found this to be simply wrong. In my case, I was on bed rest and was suffering from urinary tract infection. This was one of the worst pains I had ever had.
It seems that urethral strictures are very common in women. In fact, it’s pretty much a fact that urethral strictures are the most common type of urinary tract infection. To get to the bottom of the matter, I asked some doctors about it and they all agreed they never saw any woman who had an urethral stricture and it did not cause pain.
