I am in a quandry at the moment; I have
recently developed some pain whilst
urinating, and an inflamed meatus
(urethral opening on the penis) which is
causing pain and sensitivity. My doctor
initially has diagnosed me with a uti, and
has put me on cephalexin (keflex), but I
don't think he realised I actually had an
inflamed urethra at that time. I'm
fearing that the drugs aren't working, so
I have been researching a little before I
go see him next.
He has tested me also for stds such as
chlamydia and gonnorhea (don't know the
results), but I am sure I have not
recieved these, as I have only been with
one partner for 6 years, and we practice
safe sex and monogamy (yes, very strange
for a 23 yr old!!).
Most of the websites regarding this
problem talk about stds/stis as the
cause... But is there anything else that
could cause such a problem? Any help
would be appreciated.
