Negative for gonorrhea and chlymidia but still have pain in urethra

After having unprotected oral and vaginal sex with a girl about two months ago, I developed a slight burning feeling near the tip of my penis. It didn't feel worse during urination and there has been no discharge. The symptoms came on a week or two after the encounter from what I recall. I went to the doctor and was tested for chlamydia and gonorrhea. The tests were negative but I was given a shot of rocephin and a prescription for 1000mg of Zithromax before the results came back.

The pain in my urethra symptoms went away within 5-7 days but came back by day 13-14. I also developed pain in my hands and feet for a week or two after this treatment and a week or so of night sweats. The pain was mostly in my feet and was located in my arches and toe knuckles. Also a little in my fingers. I also had a burning sensation on the skin of my face and some on my legs and chest for that same week or so. I don't know if this was related to the drugs, stress, or the initial problem. All of these other symptoms have subsequently gone away.

Next, I went to my family doctor clinic and was tested again for chlamydia and gonorrhea. While waiting for that result I was given 100mg of doxycycline 2 times per day for 10 days. Again the tests were negative.  I finished this medication about 4 days ago. The stinging in my penis mostly went away by day 6 of this medication but after finishing it the pain has started to creep back in. Still no discharge. And no other aches or pains this time. Just a mild discomfort in the end of my urethra and maybe now it stays a little more irritated for a few minutes after urinating.

I'm now wondering if this is another bacteria that is less commonly known as an STD? Or maybe a yeast? I don't know what to do next. Does any of this sound familiar to anyone here?

Ya I don't think mine is caused from to much masterbating or sex but I guess crazier things have happened. I spanked it everyday since I was 13 approximately and I'm now 32,  It's only since the morning after I slept with this random girl I met online that my penis had what started off to be a slight irratation. Now so much time has passed with that irratation that things have gotten alot worse. The pain has gone down my thighs and into my feet, somtimes my legs hurt  its almost like a burning sensation also I need to move them around or they drive me nuts. Also just generally feeling  unwell like somthing is coursing through me.  

It's been about 5 years since I slept with that girl and  now I have a wife and kids, the wife is all clear of anything and everything cause you get a ton of tests when your pregnant. You would think I would have passed whatever I have on to her wich makes me think how can I have some kind of a mystery std so this all makes no sense.

It seems to get better for a short time when I did go see the doctor about it and have him tell me that I'm preaty much fine. It's wierd but maybe mentally I felt like I was getting help so I didn't let my self worry to much cause I was in a place we're they are supposed to be able to help you?  The doctor only gave me about 3 days of cipro last year to kill any infections there might however It didn't help at all but I wonder if I might have waited to long to see somone about this. I was very nieve about it when somthing didn't feel right and never went to see anyone until last year cause my symptoms got alot worse. Anyway I guess we will see what happens in the future, I just hope this pain goes away it's been far far to long.

Perhaps it is a mental thing then? Perhaps it is a bodily reaction to an unknown organism we do not exactly understand XD Either way if that is the case for me as well I can live with it. When I do not think too much about it, it doesn't seem to effect me. But it is still minorly irritated. I love this post area, makes us all feel somewhat better that we are not alone in our struggles!

I too have the pain and lymph nodes. I even did a FNAC on 3 of my nodes with no answer. Next is excisional biopsy

so my main issue is it only really hurts (if that, the pain is quite dull now) if I press down on it.

What we could have is muscle damage in the penis from over masturbating and sexual activity, I've had this for two months now, all negative on all STDs. No discharge or bumps on my penis. This is very common to both unprotected sex and other sexual interactions. This is a hypthesis, basically i've stopped masturbating and playing with it and it has gotten alot better. Though if I think about it the pain seems to come back. Perhaps it is a mental condition? Hmm it is interesting yet annoying...

Exactly it seems like this is a fairly common thing, everyone with preaty much the same story with slight variances wich is to be expected because everyone is different.   I'm baffled that nobody has a clue as to what this is or how o get rid of it.
