What Causes Itching And Pain In The Perineum?
Hi, I have a problem with my perineum. It is itchy, stinging, and sore sometimes. When I pee, if the pee touches it, it really burns. I have been having this problem off an on for quite some time, and I m not sure what to do about it. It can t be an STD because I ve never had sex, or been exposed to an STD in another way. Do you think you know what might be my problem? Is there anything I can do to clear this up?
