adrienneSex should be a pleasurable experience for couples. Thus, if you are feeling any sort of discomfort or pain, then it might be a sign of an underlying problem.
People of any gender and sex can experience pain or discomfort during or after sex. This can include mild discomfort to an intense feeling of pain, or worst, chronic pain that is persistent for a long period.
Pain can sometimes show visible signs such as swelling, sores, rashes, redness, or bumps. Other times, pain or discomfort can also be invisible. Moreover, pain can be felt inside the vagina, at the vaginal opening, in the testicles, penis, anus, or anywhere inside the body.
If pain and discomfort during any sexual activity have been persistent, it is important to seek professional advice from a physician. Sex is supposed to feel good, thus, if you are not enjoying it, it can undoubtedly take a toll on your sexual health and quality of life. Furthermore, if you are experiencing discomfort and pain during non-sexual activities such as exercising, urinating, cycling, etc., then it is important to seek medical help immediately.
