What Causes Burning Sensation While Urinating?
Hello,
Last week while taking a shower in the morning I noticed that I was out of bar soap/body wash. I decided to use shampoo (Head&Shoulders 2in1) instead of soap. I believe some of the shampoo got into the tip of my penis. For the next day, there was a fairly strong burning sensation when I started urinating (only when I started). This went away but it still burns/tingles a bit when urinating and when not.
I'm not sure if there is a potential infection or this might just be a case of contact dermatitis. I am sexually active but only with one person for the past 7 years - male, 28.
