Question : Why does it pain after peeing?

- My spouse is facing problem, she is feeling like burning inside her vagina after peeing.
We got married 5months back and we are not staying together due to different job location. So we meet once after 15days/month. This is second time she is facing burning issue. Usually this happens 1/2 days later after our intercourse.

Is it because of condoms we used?

Please suggest if this common / normal or do we need to consult physician for the same.

Brief Answer:
Maybe a mild urine infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

I understand your concerns. It can be a mild urinary infection. I would suggest she has plenty of water and also wash before and after a sexual activity to prevent urine infection. Passing urine after sex is also good and keeps infections away.

In case her symptoms persists or worsens it is best to meet your physician for a detailed examination and treatment.

I hope this answered your query.
