What Causes Frequent Urge To Urinate And White String Like Discharge In Men?
I just used the restroom and I peed and I noticed this long white stringy thing in the toilet after I peed. Shortly after words the tip of my penis started having this sensation like i needed to pee again. So I ve been on the toilet and it burns but it feels good and bad at the same time... What s up with me?

Hello and welcome to HCM,
Urge to pass urine repeatedly, burning sensation while urinating, passage of white string like discharge are suggestive urinary tract infection.
I suggest you to get a routine urine examination.
If there is any evidence of infection, a urine culture should follow.
Urine culture will identify the causative organism leading to infection.
In case the urine culture is positive, a drug sensitivity should be done to select the most appropriate antibiotic effective against the infectious agent.
Thanks and take care
