Suggest Remedy For Soreness And Discomfort In Urethra

Hello. I have given myself chemical urethritis by repeatedly washing myself with tea tree oil. I have passed all std tests but was unaware that is what was causing the discomfort. I used it 2-3 times daily even after discomfort occurred. My only symptom is that my urethra on the outside of penis gets sore with excessive movement. (Rubbing on my pants). My symptoms have improved over time but it has nearly been 2 months since I realized what was causing the discomfort. Even though things are improving... I am surprised it is taking this long to reach 100%. Is there an over the counter ointment I could apply to help? Thank you!

Hi,

The problem might be "urethral syndrome". It's good that you did all STD tests and all are negative. Maintain hygiene. Use soft cotton undergarment. Take plenty of water and citrus fruits.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sujoy Dasgupta, OB & GYN Specialist
