Penis - burning sensation mainly after ejaculation
Hoping someone can assist me on my issue here, at its becoming a bigger concern. I am a 27 year old male.
I had unprotected sex with a female around the beginning of June and shortly after I noticed a mild burning sensation when I ejaculated. I knew this was likely to be some kind of STD as a result, (I had been diagnosed and treated for non-specific urethritus 2 years earlier) so proceeding to get an appointment with my GP.
He prescribed a 10 day course of Doxycycline 100mg capsules which I took as prescribed. I returned to the doctors as my symptoms persisted. I gave a urine sample (which was tested for such infections) and also the penis tip swab test which all came back

I dealt with these same conditions and symptoms for several years. I went through the same dead end doctor visits just as most have. One day while researching I read some articles about prostate health. So I went to the store and found a vitamin called "Saw Palmetto" for prostate health. I started taking that every morning as well as a "cranberry fruit" vitamin for urinary tract health. I also started drinking a lot of water. Besides the vitamins and water consumption, I changed nothing else. I still drink a lot of coffee and a lot of beer/ alcohol. I also still eat anything and everything.. including hot and spicy foods. For almost a year now I have not had any issues. For the low cost of the vitamins and getting myself to consume water throughout the day the results are well worth it! I work in a fast pace/ outdoor environment so I carry a "camelback" full of water... Also well worth the investment. .After the first few weeks of pissing every 10 minutes and feeling like you are drowning from water consumption, your body starts to retain the water.
Hope this helps.

Ok, so after trying a few things and reading around I find that 1 major connection with this mysterious sensation:
1. It happens after ejaculating.
I've tried icing, creams and even massaging the damn thing, but I've tried masturbating a few minutes after and it has worked well for me since it goes away in a few short minutes, lemme explain though:
When I ejaculated it was in about a few seconds into the erection not really fully turned on or hard as yet.
But then I tried again and this time I massaged it and tried to be as gentle as possible and not too hard making sure the head got fully hard and everything, once I ejaculated the dam sensation went away.
Lets call this sucker Early Ejaculation Sensation (EES)
If you have been having unprotected sex, I suggest you see a doctor.

I'm very relieved to see that this is such a common problem. I am a 19 year old male, and have had this problem for several years now. Unfortunately I don't have a "real" solution (other than to avoid urination before and after ejaculation), but I think I can rule out a few of the mentioned causes.
Some important things about my "condition":
I never had sex.
I pretty much avoid sugar and highly processed foods. I am healthy.
I keep myself hydrated most of the time (my urine is almost always clear).
I very rarely drink any alcohol (and when I do, it's in small amounts).
I do love jalapenos and hot peppers.
I very rarely have diarrhea or gastronomical issues.
When the burning starts, it starts near the back of my urethra, and as I push pee out, I feel the burning continue down the penis shaft.
The burning sensation pretty much only happens after ejaculation.
I've had the problem for several years, but it comes and goes in long phases (several months off, a week or so on).
Given these parameters, I think I can safely RULE OUT:
STD, sugary and unhealthy food, dehydration, alcohol, soreness caused by aggressive masturbation.
I also don't think it's Candida or prostate issues, because I have none of the other symptoms for either. Perhaps it does have something to do with the fact that I love hot spicy food. I don't know. I just hope that this information helps someone narrow down the cause.
Cheers!

A urologist will be able to tell you everything you need to know. These doctors see many penises and vaginas every day. Don't be shy or embarrassed when it comes to your' health. Tell your' doctor about pills you take and what you do during sex and masturbation for an accurate quick exam, which will save you money if you aren't fully covered. Get some form of Medicare before you go. Even if it's the free kind. No insurance company will want to take you on if you have problems off the jump. I have this same problem right now and I'm in the process of a few visits. It's not normal and it should be treated. Having a weak bladder when your' old will put you into diapers again. Infections and viruses can lead to cancer. Trust me, we are very dumb when it comes to this topic, see a doctor and get to know him/her. A urologist is what you will need. Get yourself an overall doctor too. One that know about everything in general. He can point you in the direction you need to go for any health issue. People him or her will recommend because they know them personally.
I also have felt your pain.
I noticed that the Rougher the sex or Masturbation the worse it is. My cousin by blood is the same way. This leads me to be leave that there are those of us with sensitive Urethra and rough sex or anything that puts a lot of pressure on your ding **** will agitate it and cause a burning sensation. I only had only at the time been a Virgin masterbating like a fiend when I noticed it and my cuz did when he had a crazy stripper bang him. I got tested and they said I'm fine but I during to much caffeine and energy drinks and that strips the mucus lining out of your organs which could cause the symptoms I was complaining about.... **** Obama!
