Aa
soreness at tip of penis
Hi, I have a feeling of discomfort at the end of my penis. Sometimes I think it's
gone but then I notice it and then can't ignore it for ages. It often gets more
intense later in the day. When I do notice it, like if I wake up and feel it, I then
dwell on it for ages.
I had a urinary tract infection in the middle of December but
had antibiotics which cleared it up. I have never had any discharge, or spots/
bumps, and it's not physically sore To touch.
I had an oral encounter with someone other than my partner in October but have
since had in January tests for hiv, herpes, chlamydia, syphillis, gonorreh, hep b,
ureaplasma and mycoplasma and have come back negative for everything.
Could this encounter have anything to do with it, or my initial uti in December? I
had another urine test yesterday and don't currently have a uti arty tract
infection.
Could it be psychosomatic and it's nothing actually real? At the paid-for clinic
where I had my std tests she said a uti in men was unusual and i should get it
checked so maybe I'm worried about this, or worried I got ithe infection during
my oral experience
Any advice/opinions would be welcome

Thanks for your reply, I'll book to see my doctor. One other question: does the timeframe for infection with the uti in December fit with an incident at the end of October, ie would an infection take that long to manifest itself, or is it likely a coincidence that the uti followed the oral incident and it was actually caused by something else?
Thanks
Thanks

Hi there!
Well, without a detailed clinical evaluation it would be difficult to determine the cause of your symptoms. Possibilities that may need to be considered include cysts, warts, growths from the skin/ underlying connective tissue etc, I would suggest getting this evaluated by a primary care physician or a urologist for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management/
Hope this is helpful.
