What Causes Pain In Penis?

Hi, my 5 year old son is complaining that his penis hurts when he has to urinate. I took him to the pediatrician who sai it wasn't a urinary tract infection or anything like that. It only happens sometimes when he is finishing up a bath? Could it be soap getting in there or something like that. Thanks, Michelle

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.
I could think of these possibilities -
1. Balanoposthitis - infection in tip of penis
2. Soap solution induced
3. Strangury or concentrated urine
4. If there is family history of renal stones - it should be thought of.

Try to give him some sugar solution followed by 2 full glasses of water. If it still persists, we need to investigate further.

Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
