What Causes Burning Sensation In Vagina During Intercourse?
Question: Hi,
My wife is suffering from vaginal burning during intercourse. Sometimes some thick white liquid is coming out of her vagina during any time of the day. This is happening since couple of days. My wife is thinking that there may be a cut in that area. Can we apply boroline in that area? Please suggest what needs to be done.
Thanks

Brief Answer:
Couple treatment. Local hygiene. Use of condom.
Detailed Answer:
Hi, Dr Purushottam Neurgaonkar here. I welcome you to HCM VIRTUAL CLINIC. I have gone gone through your question, and I think I have understood your concern. I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.
1 ) First of all do not panic.
2 ) I will suggest you to abstain from the penetrative sex act, for next few days.
Usually, burning sensation in the vagina after sex act indicates that thereis either some kind of a vaginal infection or there is undue friction, may be due to less lubrication.
3 ) In such cases, I usually suggest to my patients to take a combination pack of Azithromycin, Fluconazole and Secnidazole. Preferably both the partners are supposed to have it at the same time.
Also, use of antifungal vaginal tablets will be of help.
Your treating doctor can guide you through the use and doses schedule and the necessary prescription of the same .
4 ) After taking the treatment, symptoms will start resolving, then you can use condom for next few times of penetrative sex. If there is no problem, you can restart penetrative sex without condom , if you wish so.
5 ) In general, keep private parts clean and dry. Use of Lactic acid containing vaginal wash on daily basis at the bath time will be helpful. You can get it across the counter or get a prescription for it from your treating doctor.
I hope this answer helps you, let me know if there's any further queries.
