They don't hurt, but if you're really stressed about it, you're going to feel a little uncomfortable cause they'll have to fight your muscles. Just remember they won't purposely hurt you and try to take deep breaths and you'll be through sooner than you realize.
A basic routine involves a basic breast exam and a quick swabbing of your vagina. It's not much different from a regular doctor visit except the only shot you might get on a regular visit is maybe a depo if you're doing that kind of birth control.
