Swollen painful urethra
Hello. My urethra is extrememly swollen and painfull. It is not a UTI, herpes or and STD just had my physical 6 weeks ago. It has been painfull off and on for 6 months. The first Dr. prescribed cefprozil. It didn't do anything. The second Dr. gave me an antifungal with anti-iflammatory cream. It helps slightly but everything is still extremely swollen. I am worried it might be something more serious? I have no discharge. Could it be a yeast infection, can they cause severe pain and swelling?
6 Months is a long time and concern is imminent at this level in time as to its cause(s). You did not say which anti-fungal/inflammatory cream was prescribed which gives you some relief! each different cream brand has different ingredients, and if we knew the brand we would know its content.
But! 6 months swollen, tells me its more than an infection, there is a possibility you have a small obstruction.

PH imbalances can cause pain , stinging and swelling.. look at what you have been eating and drinking since this started. Have you had anything new or in excess?
