What Causes Burning In Urethra While Urinating?

I have severe burning with urinal from the urethra area. I had a test on Monday and don't have a UTI. I have been treating myself for a yeast infection but the burning is getting a lot worst. What should be my next step and what could this be. I am 58 years old and married. I also have been taking difulcan for about 6 weeks.

Hello dear

Warm welcome to Healthcaremagic.com
I have evaluated your query thoroughly .

* This is in relation with urinary infection , which has to be diagnosed in
terms of causative organisms with urine culture and treat in
accordance to that .

* Empiric use of difulcan is not the solution , on the reverse it can
create resistance to antibiotics also and worsen the condition .

* Till then continue to drink plenty of liquids and avoid intercourse .

Hope this clears your doubt .
Wishing you fine recovery .

Welcome for any further assistance .
Regards dear take care .
