Q: Painful Urination After Swimming

My 7 yo daughter complains that it burns and hurts everytime she tries to go after being in any swimming pool. No other signs or symptoms or complaints any other time. Could she be allergic to the chlorine or what?

thanks!

I had the same issues as a kid. I am 31 now & still am having problems. Make sure she changes right out of her bathing suit as soon as she is done swimming. Less potential foe infection. Is she staying in her swimsuit for a long period after getting out of the pool? If the problem persists even after trying that I would take her to a urologist.


well wishes,
