What Causes Burning Sensation In Genitals?

Hi, I am a 66 year old female. Several times a day I get the feeling of warmth in the genital and lower buttock area as if I have just wet myself. However, I have not! The warmth flows in and is quite strong and burning. It lasts a couple of minutes. It s similiar to the feeling that occurs after infusion for a CT scan! Any ideas???
