BV leg pain?
Posted , 16 users are following.
Hi, I'm 26 I've never have had BV before... last week I went to the doctors cause I was having really bad pain outside my vagina, and cramping. My doctor put me on antibiotics...seems like it's not doing to much the pain outside my vagina comes and goes, but the leg pain will not go away!!!!! It started in my calves and went up to my thighs... it's sensitive to touch? I can't find anything on it.. has anyone else experienced this before?

He did do a culture, I'm still waiting for that to come back! I think that's what I'm gonna end up doing is go to a obgyn!

Yeah that's what my primary Doctor suggested to see a obgyn so that's what I did. Please let me know your update if you don't mind. I hope everything turns out good.

I have had my BV since last weekend. I just got my meds yesterday. For about 4 days I have had aching legs from my thighs to bottom of my feet and sharp pain in my back also headaches and I never get headaches. I went to the ER yesterday because the pain was so bad. The doctor said it's because of the BV. I have had a BV off and on for years and never have felt like this. My legs feel weak and I can't stand or walk for too long. It's very frustrating because I work out and due to this now I can't. I'm going to get another opinion from a different doctor because this sounds to abnormal and the pain is scary. Please reply on what your ob says about your pain.

I was wondering what you found that helped you and if they changed any of your meds?

was it the BV that caused your leg pain? did the antibiotics help?

I had a herniated/compressed disc which can cause sciatica 5 years ago. I treated it with acupuncture and chiropractic, and recovered in 3-6months. This time when it came back and traveled down my butt to my leg it was much worse. Like you, I haven't been able to exercise, it's been 6 months of constant pain its making me crazy. My legs are weak and shaky, I'm exhausted, I had to cut my hours at work. I'm up all night because there's pressure on my bladder to pee but nothing to come out. I've been going to the same chiropractor and acupuncturist but this time it's not fixing it. I would see improvement then go backwards. I think its linked to this bv infection I just found out I have. I just started antibiotics and I'm also going to do the h202 douching, and add 1 cup of hydrogen peroxide to my bath. I'll report back.

Im 44 and for some reason i have been plagued with yeast and bv infections for the last 10 years like crazy. Sometimes its hard to know the difference but BV usually starts with shooting pains in my butt and upper thighs and I just feel bad all over. Im bloated and have stabbing pains in my utherus and inside my vigina. It almost feels like I am developing a specific sore on the outside of my vagina but most of the time it doesnt. It just stings when i pee. Bv makes my life miserable. I finally started taking a good probiotic that has helped with both yeast and Bv. Its so expensive i hadnt taken it for awhile and I now have an infection again. So I have started taking them again and they seemed to of helped but its back to the damn dr tomorrow who are useless. I live in a small town and am limited to drs here.

Hi Britney I know its been a while since you posted about your leg pain and bv. Im having the same thing and somehow i think it may be linked to the bv that i have. It usually comes and goes but I havent been tracking it along with the leg. Tbh, I was quite surprised to even read of others thinking the same. Did you ever find out what was causing your leg pain?

hey mary, i know its been a while since you commented, but recently i started dealing with bv too, my infections come back every time i have intercourse, ever since i have had really bad leg pain, but since the leg pain is more associated with herpes i been scared, surprisingly theres other people dealing with the same.

Hi everyone,
I've read a few of your post and I can't believe I'm not the only one having these symptoms. I wanted to ask do you all remember using a product called Rephresh? Even if it was a while ago. Please let me know. I feel like I didn't start getting bv until after I started using this product. My friend too. I now have to use their probiotic. I just want to see is this something we have in common.

Pain in the legs and sensitivity to touch can be associated with various causes. It's essential to consult your doctor again to investigate the source of your symptoms, especially if they persist despite antibiotics.
