Burning Sensation - Urethra


Q: I have a chronic problem since last few months, I feel a terrible burning sensation in my urethra after ejaculation or passing urine. It lasts for about an hour after ejaculation. The urine culture test showed negative though as per the doctors I took Norflox and Tiniba for 15 days. There was a slight relief when I was taking the medicines but now its very painful and burning. I was not married but have had unprotected sex with my girlfriend on 3-4 occasions. Please adivise me what can be the cause of the problem and what is the furthur course of action.

A:Since you have been suffering from burning pain in the urethra, I would suggest the following tests:-1.) Urine ultra-centrifugation & sedimentation test2.) Repeat urine culture with the morning mid stream urine in a sterile bottle.3.) Drink a lot of water 5-6 litres/day along with syrup Citrika 1tsp thrice a day for 7 days till the results are available.With regard to unprotected sex, you should know that you are putting yourself at risk of acquiring various kinds of Sexually Transmitted infections and HIV/AIDS. Protect yourself and use condoms every time.
