A member asked:

Why does my vagina hurt when i wipe?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Wiping away pain: The vulvar tissues are sensitive to "rough handling" even when healthy. If there is an infection or other problem present it will feel like you are wiping with "sandpaper". A good exam by a OB GYN MD will make sure there aren't any lesions or infection. Sometimes, dabbing gently with moist toilet paper or using "baby" wipes works to relieve discomfort if wiping from front to back at all times.
