Some swelling on tip of my Urethra.

[inawhitebug]

So, I've had sex once and it was protected, but ever since then, there is some minor swelling at the opening of my Urethra. As far as I can tell I doesn't hurt or ooze or any of the other std like symptoms. Once in a while i beleive it gives off an undesireable odor but other then the swelling not much is up, and like I said i've only had sex once and it was protected. My question is does anyone know what it might be? If it has any relevance i'd also like to mention I have/had kidney stones. Which could have something to do with it, if it's not some sort of STD.

I am 18 years old, Male, and the sex was 2 years ago, the kidney stones 9 months ago, symptoms starting shortly after the sex I beleive.

Well, do you have a regular doctor you can start with and get a referral to a urologist or kidney specialist, if he thinks you need one?

As far as I know i don't have a Urologist, i just went to the ER one night cuz my kidneys hurt like a *****, the doctor took a urine sample, told me my urine was full of blood...i told him no ****, he took a Catscan...deal thing...saw some stones...gave me pain killers and charged me a shitload of money...weren't even good painkillers...the *******.

LOL yes, that's what I am going to say.  I assumed you had a urologist since you had kidney stones - that might have been a big assumption on my part.  

If its bothering you - and it is or you wouldn't be posting on the internet, right? - then its worth seeing a doctor about.

Sounds like you're right - I hope you plan to follow up with your urologist.

actually upon closer examination I notice its only on the bottem half of the opening of my Urethra, which leads me to beleive its Urine related...since it appears to be on the part urine most often passes by. I doubt though that its kidney stone related on account i got the stones less than a year ago and now that i think about it the sex was 2 and a half years by now. So it seems most likely a urine/prostate problem...

Its not likely an std if you had protected sex.  This might be something you need to follow up with your doctor or urologist with, as it might pertain to the kidney stones.
