Pain in penis after ejaculation.

Hi,
I am 20 years old and am still a virgin.
This started happening many years ago, but now it happens more often (about every second ejaculation on average).
After I ejaculate, I get a burning/stinging pain inside my penis near the tip.  This makes me need to go to the toilet for a pee(even if I cant), which helps a little.  I usually sit on the toilet for about half an hour to get rid of the pain. I'm then left with a mild discomort for another half-hour or so.
I've looked on the web and found others with this problem; they have been tested for std's, Uriny tract infections, and nothing comes up as the culprit.


Sometimes I don't have this problem for months, and other times it can happen just about every time I ejacutlate.

Help?

Hi, I had the same problem.I am 26 with no STDs.I suffered a lot due to this problem.For many years I experienced sharp pain at the tip of my penis  and urge to urinate after ejaculation.This pain would go automatically after half an hour or so.
From my observations
the reason behind this is less water intake.Recently I started measuring my water intake as  am a fitness freak and  I go to the gym regularly.I noticed that if on some days I consumed less water like 500-800ml a day then I would get this pain.Specially on a busy day when I would go out in the sun or spend the whole day walking to and fro under the sun and consume less water I would get this pain after ejaculation.
My advice would be that you consume 2-3lts of water in a day and then check.
Or try ejaculating on a lazy  Sunday when you don't do much work and  consume more water (2-3liters) 2-3hours  before ejaculation.

Wow, happy to see othes with this problem... I also have this , but ONLY after I have had a few drinks of alcohol... then if I have sex or M.B I get this unbelievable discomfort feeling in the tip of my penis.

Takes anywhere between 30-60min to go away, like I said earlier, this only happens after I had a few drinks... it’s very stranger and extremely annoying.... I’m a married man with a VERY faithful wife ,I’m  STI feee .  Just wanted to add my tip on how alcohol seems to be the reason it happens to me... VERY STRANGE

Oh i just want to add - DONT WEB MD you symptoms.  As i stated go see a doctor if you are experiencing ongoing pain. Everything medical on the net leads to cancer, death or chronic pain which will only flare your symtoms and take longer to heal. I found this out personally when i sufferred a nerve injury and spent hours going though horror stories of people that never healed and lived with chronic pain - well I healed with the nerve injury after a few months and now pain free but at the time i thought my life was over. Sometimes it is just a waiting game but 9 out of 10 times it gets better. I mentioned IC - Interstitial Cystitis - above which is not curable but is treatable but this  is mainly a womans disease and is not just a burning tip or head; comes with bladder pain and a range of other symtoms and even then it can be something other than IC.

I have had this issue for years - since a teenager - am now 45 - and like many after masturbating and sex at times I get an intense burning. Always went away after a hot shower and a pee. Excately 17 days ago after masturbating i got the feeling and was not able to have a hot shower and just peed and went to bed. I have had this pain now for nearly 3 weeks. I have just started seeing a Uroligist as i don't know what it is (its not a uti or sti) but have a consant pain/burning in my urethra in the head of my penis and it mainly hurts/flares up AFTER i pee. The consant pain feels like i have am holding on to urine in the head but I have a normal stream and no other pain besides the head. Now i may have damaged or have a underlining condition so dont be scared but  keep to a routine and have a hot shower and pee straight after sex or masturbation. Im not sure if i have some scarring that may have developed over many years of this condition as only started working with the uroloigist. I feel stupid now that i didnt just have a hot shower straight after at the time but this does work. There are rare condtions such as IC, scarring of the urtheral and Urtheral Syndrome that can develop. Ural or baking soda in water can also be really good to help with the pain. Don't panic as anxiety will flare the condition. If you have the pain for days go to a doctor and maybe get prescibed some anti-anxiety meds so you don't panic and flare it up. In most cases you most likely have an inflamtion and the urine passing through is keeping that inflamation going that where the baking soda can help.  Be kind to your penis as you only have one.
