What Causes Stinging Pain At Tip Of Penis?
Question: Hi, over the last week I've experienced stinging pain at the tip of my penis. Coincidentally, it was the morning after I had sex with my wife. In addition, I had drank a lot of alcohol that night. Since that next morning, the sensation has felt as if a) the tip of my penis is stinging, and now more recently over the last couple days b) a sort of pressure at the tip of my penis as if there is some blockage or leftover urine. I masturbated in the hopes that I would discharge anything in there. It did not hurt to climax. While urinating it does seem to feel a little uncomfortable, but it could just be my anxiety. In addition, I feel like I have to urinate quite a bit and never feel like I've gotten everything out. In fact, there does seem to be some leakage after the fact. I am on no medication whatsoever (other than taking mortin this week). Also, I have noticed that I pee a lot slower (starting and finishing) but that is not new. That has been happening for well over 5 months. As of this morning, moving my bowels now seems even more difficult, but again, could be due to anxiety.

Thanks Doctor, that makes me feel a lot better. Would you suggest I give it until say this coming Monday, and if I do not feel 100%, then to go to the doctor's office? Or, do I give it a little more time than that?
Brief Answer:
Wait & Observe
Detailed Answer:
Hello
You are most welcome. Simply wait and observe. If you feel pain then you can take ibuprofen for it. As mentioned earlier, use lubricant during sex. If it does not start improving in 3-4 days then you can visit hospital.
