Endometriosis Support Group
Endometriosis is a common medical condition where the tissue lining the uterus is found outside of the uterus, typically affecting other organs in the pelvis. The condition can lead to serious health problems, primarily pain and infertility. A major symptom of endometriosis is pain, mostly in the lower abdomen, lower back, and pelvic area.
Hey this could be related to vulvodynia, but just in case some one here has the same symptoms. I sometimes get weird vaginal burning on the right side which feels like it's on the inside, but I can't really pinpoint. When this flares up, my right foot starts to burn like crazy indicating that it's either a nerve issue or that possibly (endo) something is sitting somewhere causing the pain. Also, my right side is my worse side. My right ovary, my right hip and even the vulovdynia was way worse so I don't know. I also have vaginismus, so perhaps the muscle is tightening on that side which may be near a nerve causing the burning? I don't know I probably sound insane, but I wanted to hear your thoughts on this. If anyone knows of anything please let me know.
Also, one last question... Can endo actually grow on the inside of your vagina? Like closer to the opening? UGH!

Perhaps a nerve that is connected to the vaginal burning, travels to your foot. I know sometimes when I have a nerve twing in my upper region, the foot sometimes react as well. Such as, and this is strange lol but I'll get a twing in my foot but I'll feel a burning either up my back or by my bellybutton. Then it's gone.
You could be right about the vaginismus. I'm not expert, but muscles tightening can irritate a nerve.
Hope that helps some :)
Good luck on your annual breast ultrasound!
As for the burning foot, that's typical of a back injury when it gets pretty bad. I had that for years, YEARS before my second lap. Then they removed some adhesions that I believe removed the problem. Sorry you're going through this. I recommend looking for back-strengthening exercises and doing those at other points in your cycle to try to help. PT helped a little for me which is why I suggest it, but was not an end-all-be-all cure.
