The other day, I started experiencing some pain in my genital area. The next day, I found that the pain didn’t seem to be my vagina, but more near my urethra. It hurts when I pee, at first leading me to believe its a UTI. I found though, that if I spread my labia when I go to the bathroom, it doesn’t hurt, making me wonder if I have a sore or something. I’ve tried looking with a mirror, but can’t really see anything. It’s not possible for me to have an STD, I’m POSITIVE. Is this still a UTI, or something else?

You may have an abrasion or small skin tear on your labia. Urine flowing over the open wound maybe causing some discomfort. It may help to put some antibiotic ointment or Vaseline on it. These would provide a protective barrier.

If you have had unprotected sex or have had multiple partners in the past, there is the possibility of STD. Genitial herpes may cause sores.

Ultimately, if the discomfort continues, you need to be seen by your doctor.
