Posted on Sat, 5 Dec 2015

Question: the skin between my clitoris and urethra stings after I urinate and I get sharp shooting pains through my clitoris up through my belly button and shooting pains through my anus. doctors say there is no infection. what could it be? been going on for a year and a half

Brief Answer:
Appears to be calculus

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns about the shooting pain.

This appears to be urethral or urinary bladder calculus ( Stone). This needs to be identified by doing ultrasound scan.

Please get an ultrasound scan to identify the same.

This needs to be removed by cystoscopy if present.

I dont have pain whilst urinating just after and it's the skin that hurts underneath my clitoris not my bladder

Brief Answer:
Calculus

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand what you are describing. This is typically the pain experienced during the episodes of calculus.

I strongly feel you should rule out calculus by an ultrasound scan.

Meanwhile repeat urine test to identify the infection in urine.

could it be vulvodynia

Answered by Dr. Soumya (39 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
No

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Such sharp pain is unlikely to be vulvodynia.

Vulvodynia pain is different.

This pain is more like calculus.

Let me know if you need anymore help.
