As with many infections in and around the vagina and the urinary tract, a burning sensation when urinating is often felt. This is mainly because the skin around the vagina is red and sore. Of course, it then doesn't help when the skin becomes itchy; this just exacerbates the problem further and can lead to more infection. The burning sensation is felt mainly when urinating, but can also be uncomfortable though discharge, anything that will irritate the skin. The burning sensation is stronger after intercourse, and it can be extremely uncomfortable.
