Hi
Welcome to healthcare-Magic
'Greetings of the day

Dear Sir

Going by description of symptoms its likely to be anterior Urethritis : Which is the inflammation of last part of urinary tube. Other possibility that needs to be considered is Balanoposthitis . Exact diagnosis will depend on clinical examination.

It would be very helpful if you could provide me following additional information.

1. Is there any discolouration of head of penis?
2. Are you circumcised ?
3. Do you have any discharge from urinary opening ?
4. Providing clinical photograph will be really very helpful

Awaiting your response

Take Care

Best Regards
