which bactery or virus could cause constant urethritis

Please help to find the cause. Maybe it's some virus related or some rare bacteria which is not being cultured? Like h pylori, etc.? It lasts more that two moths already.

- no STDs found from swab test
- urethral fluid shows inflammation
- cultured few times which showed some random bacteria (first time enterococcus faecalis, second time staphylococcus mrsa) with minor growth. I assume it needs confirmation before taking any treatment.
- never had a discharge
- no urge to pee
- pain in groin area, lymph nodes not swollen, used to feel burning sensation
- sensitive skin, seems like nerve irritation, mostly in groin area, but sometimes all body gets irritated
- random pelvic pains, left and right side
- random tingling penis tip and tingling/itching anus
- something uncomfortable inside urethra, dark red (bluish) spots visible inside urethra
- hsv1 positive, cmv positive. Never had a lesion.
- had some fever symptoms, fatigue, sore throat and chills. They seem to fade away, only fatigue left and all the symptoms mentioned above.

meds tried, which didn't provide any relief:
- 3 pills of Azithromycin
- 10 day course of Doxycycline
- 7 days Waltrex 1g/day

So I guess no one has a clue of what could cause this redness inside urethra and irritation
Ask your primary doc to do a throat culture for urea plasma and your urologist to culture your penis/ urin for the same. YOU MAY NEED ANTIBIOTIC TREATMENT FOR LONGER. ONCE THE CULTURE  COME BACK THE DOC WILL NO WHAT ANTIBIOTICS TO PRESCRIBE. I hope you feel better.
