[54M] Experiencing stinging and burning sensation during ejaculation

What might be happening

Based on the information you have provided, possible diagnoses include:

• Prostatitis: This is inflammation or infection of the prostate gland that can cause pain during ejaculation, pain in the area between the scrotum and rectum, and urinary symptoms. It can be caused by a bacterial infection, but often the cause is unknown.

  • Treatment typically involves antibiotics, alpha blockers, anti-inflammatory agents, and pain relievers.

• Urethritis: This is inflammation of the urethra, the tube that carries urine from the bladder out of the body. It can cause pain during ejaculation and urination.

  • Treatment typically involves antibiotics.

• Urinary Tract Infection (UTI): Although less common in men, a UTI can cause pain during urination and ejaculation, and increased urgency to urinate.

  • Treatment typically involves antibiotics.

Please note that these are possible diagnoses based on the symptoms you've described. It's important to consult with a healthcare provider for an accurate diagnosis and treatment.

What you can do

1. Schedule an appointment with your healthcare provider. They may need to conduct a physical examination and possibly order some tests, such as a urine test or prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test, to determine the cause of your symptoms.

2. In the meantime, over-the-counter pain relievers may help alleviate your symptoms. However, these should not replace a visit to your healthcare provider.

3. Stay hydrated and avoid alcohol, caffeine, and spicy foods, which can irritate the urinary tract.

What you should look out for

Seek immediate medical attention if you experience:

• Severe pain
• Blood in your urine or semen
• Fever or chills
• Difficulty urinating or complete inability to urinate
