What can Cause an Irritated Urethra? Posted: 06-29-06 15:20pm
my urethra is raw...it burns sometimes
when i pee, but mainly ater i urinate. it
feels like i can not get it all out. i
have no leakage or drips that i can notice
other than the last few drops of urine,
also ive only been with one girl, and im
her only partner as well, and we wear a
condom everytime. i had my urine sampled
and there were no signs of bacteria or
stds. I live in a dorm witha community
bathroom if that could possibly have
caused something, also 2 days before the
situation, i applied tinactin athletes
foot cream to a jock itch, and i dont know
if it could have somehow gotten into my
urethra and caused the irritation. my doc
wants to give me a probe test but it seems
unncecesarry because of my sexual past. i
shower daily, and i take all the health
precautions sexually. also, i cover the
toilet seat when i use it, but please tell
me if you got any insight to my problem..
P.S. i have no back pain or any symptoms
of kidney, blatter problems including
kidney stones... also idk could it be a
prostate problem at my age? I have a lot
of sex, but i am safe when i do it, and i
have never had any complications. ive had
the same amount of sex monthly for about
the past year, by that i mean i havent
increased in the amount i have. Im
stumped...and im not some dumb kid, im in
college in pre med, with a good gpa? ive
never had a problem like this before.
thank you

It seems likely that you have an urethral
inflammation (urethritis) that was
probably NOT caused by infection because
the urine analyses were negative. You scan
return and take the urethral probe test
that your doctor suggested. Perhaps you
are experiencing an allergic reaction to
the ream you’ve used or from the oil on
a condom. Mechanical irritation during sex
can also cause such problems. It seems
that there is nothing serious to be
worried about. The condition will probably
pass spontaneously.
