Hello
   I am a seventeen year old male , for the past 3 months i have been having some problems , it first started as slight burning during urination , and developed pain in testicals , then over all a feeling of being weak all down
there , it seems to be getting worse over time .
   I have seen doctors and they have been soo busy they would just schedule for for another month away without a diagnosis , so i have recently gone to the emergency room  , and they ran a blood and urine test , and they didnt find any infection , i then told them i wanted STD tests and told them i was a virgin but
had sexual contact , they denied me of this and said it wasnt necessary and was unlikely that was the problem, they then asked me if i would like  psychoatric treatment anc counceling and asked if i would like to be admitted , i said no
in other words they think i am imagineing all this. which i am not ,
i am very confused and do not know what to do, i would really appreciate your advice.
Thanks ,
Chris

What do you mean by saying that you are a virgin with sexual contact?  Do you mean you had oral contact?  Manual contact?  How soon after the encounter did you first notice the burning?  How long did the burning last until if finally went away, or did it go away completely?  Did you ever notice a discharge from your penis?
Please answer these questions and maybe I can provide some more information.
With what you have described, it sounds like it might be prostatitis.  Prostatitis can be caused by an STD that was not treated, such as chlamydia.  It can also be caused by a host of other things and can be quite difficult to treat.  You may need to see a urologist who understands prostititis, and long term antibiotic therapy may be necessary which, if you are lucky, will cure you completely.  
From what you have described of the ER, it does not sound like they either did a culture of your blood or urine, nor examined or cultured a sample of your prostatic fluid.  If the doctor finds white blood cells in the prostatic fluid, the diagonisis of prostatitis is made, and antibiotic therapy is begun. I do not know that chlamydia or gonnorhea can be detected without being cultured, so I doubt that an STD can be ruled out at this point. despite what the ER may have told you. I know that some doctors do not think it likely that an STD can be passed to a male via oral or manual contact, but it most certainly happens.  
Hope this helps. Try to answer the questions for some more information.
