I’m assuming you know a woman who has been diagnosed with Vulvodynia (also spelled Vulvadynia), a chronic discomfort or pain characterized by burning, stinging, irritation or rawness of the female crotch
in cases
in which there is no infection or skin disease of the vulva or vagina causing these symptoms. Burning sensations are the most common, but the type and severity of symptoms are highly individualized, and the pain may be constant or intermittent, localized or diffuse.
