I believe I’ve way over done kegels and have been noticing some symptoms. I occasionally have trouble letting gas go and have more recently noticed burning during sex. The issue with sex has only happened 2x but the gas issue has been happening for longer albeit both are infrequent. I have no issue with urination. Also, can I continue running, biking, and HIIT while working on relaxing my PF?
