Tingling in urethra?
Hello, I am a 18 yr old male. 6'0 200 lbs. I work out about 2-3 times a week for about 2 hours. I am sexually active.
So, I have been experiencing tingling / a leaking feeling of fluid in my urethra. This started about 3 weeks ago and it's very annoying. It feels itchy and tingling and the only way to soothe it is to continually rub the back of the head of my penis until it goes away. Also, sometimes, not all the time it stings when I urinate but not to the point where it's unbearable. The pain isn't that bad and I can still urinate with it without cringing or it hurting too bad. About 5 days ago I also started experiencing groin/pelvic pain. It's located on the left side of my groin behind my penis and above the scrotum. The pain isn't intense, it's a dull pain and sometimes it radiates to my left butt and lower back but mostly it's in the groin. This pain too isn't painful to the point that I cringe or its unbearable but I can feel it.
I went to the doctor and he suspected it could be a UTI or a STI so he took a blood test and a urine sample and the tests came back normal. So what else could it be!? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

Hi there!
Well, without a clinical evaluation it would be difficult to determine the cause of your symptoms. Possibilities that may need to be considered include infections, inflammations, neuro-muscular issues etc. I would suggest getting this evaluated by a primary care physician or a urologist for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management.
Hope this helps.
