If you need information on vaginal yeast infection pain, you will need to be positively sure you have a yeast infection and not another medical issue causing the pain.
Pain from these infections affect your abdominal area, back, head, joints, and muscles.
The top 5 ways these infections cause pain are:

1. Pain during urinating.
   When the fungus invades the bladder, the outer area becomes inflamed and eventually the bladder infection begins.
   The swollen bladder strains to release the urine, and it burns the sensitive skin in passing.
   This pain from infection, called cystitis, is common in women.
   
2. Low and high back pain.
   Sometimes the inflamed vagina is pressing against the back and causes severe pain in the lower back.
   Also back pain from the infection may be a kidney infection that has spread up from a bladder infection.
   This pain from the infection is higher up the back just below the shoulder blades.
   
3. Painful intercourse.
   The inflamed vaginal walls make intercourse very difficult and sometimes cause spotting.
   Vaginal pain may be so severe that some women cannot have sexual intercourse for months.
   The inflamed vulva and vagina make relaxation and intimacy near impossible.
   The Candida infection discharge is thick and not conducive to intercourse.
   
4. Pain in the abdomen.
   This is sometimes caused by gas generated by the growing yeast.
   Eating foods which are low in fiber and high in refined carbohydrates and foods with high yeast or mold content, such as bread and cheese, may cause yeast over-growth.
   Heartburn is the most common stomach pain.
   
5. Yeast infection cause pain throughout the body.
   Toxins from the Candida over-growth get into the blood stream.
   The body becomes weak and the mind becomes "spacey".
   Some women experience painful migraines and joint pains.
