My ex had problems similar to yours, especially the burning sensations. But from your description of 'sqeezing him in' it sounds like you may have vaginismus. It's a condition often brought on by trauma that causes an involuntary contaction of the vaginal muscles. Sometimes it can be so much that penetration is impossible. It may be that the condition is worsening because of the continuing pain that intercourse is causing you. It's treatable with dialators that slowly over time stretch and loosen the muscles.

Here's more info about that...

The burning sensation can be caused by transfer of neural signals. The nerves for the pelvic floor muscles and the skin of the vagina are in close proximity. Electrical spikes caused by muscle twinges can transfer to the nerves of the skin, causing burning or stabbing sensations. I'm not saying that this is what's going on, but it seems likely.
