Post Ejaculation Penis Pain

by ToEmbarrasedToTellYou, Aug 18, 2004 12:00AM
For as long as I can remember, say 7 years, I have experienced some post ejaculation penis ache. The symptom is most acute if I have an erection sometime after ejaculation, either during sleep or sometime after sex.



The pain for time to time can wake me up during the night so I would like to sort it out.



For your information :-



I have a very slight camber to my penis (nothing like the photo’s of Pyronies disease).



I have taken my symptoms to my doctor whom after having an inspection found nothing and gave me little advice. I was not tested for any STD’s.



I tend to masterbate or have sex on average once a day.



Many thanks.

Infection would be something to rule out.  Tests for STDs, such as gonorrhea and chlamydia (which can be done via a urine test or urethral swab) as well as a urinalysis can be considered.  



If negative, anatomical abnormalities - such as a urethral stricture or urethral polyps - can all cause the symptoms.  The most comprehensive test would be a cystoscopy for evaluation and this can be discussed with your personal urologist.  



If everything is negative, you can consider a neurology referral to evaluate for any nerve dysfunction.  



Followup with your personal physician is essential.
