Wee Hole

[Jade89]

It still hurts to wee, when i wee and the last bit is coming out my wee hole and area around it feels like its about to drop off, it feels so bruised still and painful to touch is this normal, did anyone else have this?

what causes it ( a baby obviously, i mean what in birth causes it) and how long does it last? I almost cry when I wee sometimes

Could be a UTI hun. Go to the docs to get it checked out. I had one as I had a catheter with my section, and it caused the pain you are describing. Antibiotics cleared it in a few days.

I had my LO just over two weeks ago and around my clit area still hurts sometimes when I wee or walk or even when I sit sometimes!
th burning stopped after a few days so it could be that you still havent healed properly (though its a month now isnt it?) ot it could be a UTI, best to get it checked

i have my 6-8 week check on the 19th anyway so i'll ask about it then, i dont like going to my doc, hes never there and has someone covering who is a complete arse!!! he told my skinny sister she was fat, and overweight and had loads of body fat! Now I think its really affected my sister and I think she will end up becoming anorexic or somethin If he says shes fat then gosh, hes sure gona make me cry

have you been doing your pelvic floor excersises? it does help heel it quicker best time the MV told me to do it was when doing a pee
but it was about 6 weeks when i felt normal down their again

Don't do pelvic floor excercises when having a wee if you think you may have an infection ( ie.. you are having pain or soreness) as this can encourage more bacteria to go higher up your urinary track and can lead to a kidney infection.

I would go to see the practice nurse at the GP centre Jade and tell her you think you have a water infection. They can prescribe antibiotics for you if they are nurse practitioners. Also drink plenty of water and try some cranberry juice...

It does sound to me like it is an infection - but thats not surprising considering the amount of bruising you must have had!!

idont know...it dosnt sound like an infection to me, i have the same thing Jade i think its just because i wasnt very good with my pelvic floor excersises prebirth and therefore has caused me to be very sore for a long time...sometimes when i go to wee i get the same pain you describe its proberly just still very bruised...with water infections its usually more sharp stinging that feeling like its going to drop off like i get...and also feeling you need to wee constantly.

I would do pelvic floor excersises regularily.

how often are you 'supposed' to do pelvic floor excersises anyway?
i didnt kno how to do it untill after Adele was born now i do about 10-15 every hour, just habbit now

 

[Lyndsey]

Thats why it is important to rule out a water infection by doing a urinalysis if you don't have an infection then carry on with the pelvic floor excercises.... although doing them when mid pee can contribute to urine infections anyway.... if you do have an infection have antibiotics to clear it up and carry on with the pelvic floor excercises as well.

Does this make sense?? Pregnancy Brain is kicking in!!

I was sore for about 6-8 weeks - mind you I tore really badly.

I've only just seen this post and I had exactly the same problem!!!It was always the last little dribbles of piddle that was the worst,so bad I'd try and stop it coming outand sometimes it felt like it was going to split open! I think I felt like this from the second week onwards,until around the eighth week.
I never went to the Doctors though,I just thought is was because of the healing process pulling everything tight,but if you are concerned you are best getting it checked out

i had this prob and went bout 2 weeks later

 

[cassi]

i have exactly the same thing and i know it isnt an infection as i have my own test sticks (i used to get infections all the time)....and infections are nothing like this...infections sting all the way through during weeing and you feel like you need to wee all the time....and that is worse than the stinging!

YES...the last dribbles are the worst they have my face all scrunched up in pain...

I wil ask my doc, my appointment has been changed to the 20th now. It does seem to be getting a little better. Like i say its not stinging its aching as I wee and worse at the end, thats when it feels like its about to drop off. The urge to wee comes on so sudden and sometimes it dribbles out and I can't stop it...luckily I havn't been out away from a loo when it's happened, now I have to go straight away as soon as I get the urge coz it's so strong and sometimes painful too. I have been doing pelvic floor exersises but not when I wee, it's difficult to do them when i'm not in pain let alone when i'm in pain from weeing. It feels like I really have to clench as hard as I can to tighten my muscles up and I used to have no problem doing them.
