About six weeks ago I went through about a week of burning sensation on my penis and testicles, and then the symptoms went away. I got tested and re-tested for the standard STDs (HIV, herpes, various VDs) and the tests all came back negative. Recently the symptoms have reemerged only the burning is located at the tip of my penis near the uretha canal and on my testicles right where they touch the tip of my penis. My ex-girlfriend (we split about three months ago) informed me of a strange growth inside her vagina and fears she may have HPV--but seems reticent to get tested. I did post an inquiry with the HPV community and have yet to hear much. From reading on my symptoms on the net the idea of a possible UTI came to my attention. Do these sound like possible symtoms?
Hi,
How are you? HPV virus is transferred primarily by skin-to-skin contact. HPV infections associated with genital warts and related lesions are contracted through sexual intercourse, anal sex and other skin-to-skin contact in the genital regions. Some HPV infections that result in oral or upper respiratory lesions are contracted through oral sex. Usually genital warts occur in HPV infection, but some patients are asymptomatic.
Symptoms that you mentioned are clearly suggestive of UTI, more precisely of prostatitis. I would suggest that you get a urine analysis with culture done. Depending upon the results, appropriate antibiotics can be used for 7-10 days for clearing up the infection. Consult a urologist for further assistance.
Best.
