I am slightly embarrassed to mention/ask this. Lately when I eat an extra lot of salt (like potato chips, salty nuts) I get a severe burning in my "V" area. What could this be?? It happens every single time!! I take Azo for relief, but this is strange!

First, please see a doctor and know for certain what's going on.... only a doctor can give you a serious evaluation along with suggestions.
But to me it sounds like an inflamation that is really irritated by the salt going through your system, like a cut on your finger that really gets inflamed and hurts when salt comes in contact with it. I'd stop eating anything with overt salt (including high-density foods like Chinese) and give that area a chance to heal and see how it responds.
However, I'm not a doctor and again, really encourage you to see one....

@TX-starlight Are you drinking enough fluids, especially water? I get something similar to that when I eat a lot of spicy or acidy foods, like tomato sauce, lemons, limes, spicy shrimp salad, etc. and not drinking enough fluids. I was starting to get a reaction the other day when I had been eating a lot of Salt and Vinegar potato chips with shrimp salad! But I hadn't been drinking enough water. All I have to do is drink lots of water and eat more yogurt and I'm fine. But I really have to watch the food I eat. I hope you find out what caused it and it goes away.

@TX-starlight Good reason NOT to eat an extra lot of salt? Not good for you anyway.....problem fixed.
