What Causes Urethra Pain?
Hi, my urethra has been hurting now for about 5 days. I'm pretty sure that it is a chemical irritation and not a STD. The pain in the urethra itself seems to be going away, but it still burns really bad when ever I go to the bathroom. Will this go away soon or should I get help?

Hello,
Pain and burning sensation while passing urine, usually indicates urinary tract infection.
Go for complete urine examination including culture and antibiotic sensitivity. Also, consult a physician for antibiotic course after the urine report.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Siddartha
