Brief Answer: Renal stone, prostatitis Detailed Answer: Hello Thanks for the query, Pain in urethra can be associated with infections, prostatitis as well as renal stone. It is good that infections are ruled out with tests. Considering your age, I would suggest you to get an ultrasound of KUB ( kidney and urinary bladder) region done. This will help in ruling out renal stone and prostatitis. Let me know if you have any other doubts. Thank you
