Hello guys, I am going to share some information that will help you. I have been through 15 years of worry and unanswered questions. I have been misdiagnosed with prostatitis (which is the favorite diagnosis), interstitial cystitis, etc. I have had countless STD tests, yeast tests, urinalysis. I found the answer to my problems by going to a passionate physcial therapist. So here is the problem, it is nerve pain/inflammation. Specifically the pudendal nerve. How many of you guys spend way too much time sitting? Or too much sex? Too much sex and masturbation can tighten the muscles of the pelvic floor and in effect cause inflammation to your nerves. (for more info check out the book "Headache in the Pelvis") On a side note, what was the most confusing part of my journey was that I had white blood cells in ejaculate. Sure sign of infection right? No! The only thing that was found was white blood cells. White blood cells are sent to sites by your body because of inflammation. Bacteria is not the only cause of inflammation. It is a domino effect of inflammation, first with your pelvic muscles/nerves then with the surrounding tissue. The pudendal nerve innerviates the genital area, when it is inflammed you will have tingling, numbness or electroshock like feelings in your penis. I still have flare ups but I know what it is now. I cure myself by getting more exercise, destressing, less sitting, sometimes if it is really bad I will take a round of prednisone(steroid) to stop the inflammation, I have also used NSAIDS but they are not as effective. I hope this helps at least one person and save you years of doctor visits. Please reply if this post helps you. I will leave you with a link so you can read about pudendal neuralgia. http://www.pudendalhope.info/node/9

Partial success!...... After reading through all the post i got even more worried, but I thanks to everyone who replied, it gave me some hope and treatment ideas to try....After having tingling penis for 2 days straight non stop. (felt like a cell phone on vibrate in the tip of my penis that would ring every few seconds)....I believe that it has to do with nerves in the penis....I had been having lower back pain for the past six months, sometimes it is worse that others. I saw some post regarding budging disks and pinched nerves, I took a hot shower, and stretched out my lower back really good. (took an ALEVE). This helped reduce the tingling, to between every 30 second to two minutes. ......I also agree with the post on 1/5/13.....Woke up this morning and I have only felt one or two tingles in a couple of hours. I never would reply to post in blogs like this, but as a guy with this problem, I know how depressed you can get when there are any ISSUES with out little buddy. So I hope this helps someone out there, and don't let your mind take you to the worst possible cause, it could be something less troubling.

I can't believe this post has been since 2006 - but nevertheless the internet is a great place to go to, and find someone with a similar problem.. I am happy to hear I am not the only one with this issue, although I feel for us all. I've had it for 3 weeks, and constantly thought I had a text or a call due to the 'vibration' in my pocket, but when I grab the phone, there is no missed call, or text.. I am not a hypochondriac, but this has been an annoying distraction, and I find myself almost obsessed with if/when it is happening.
I've read all the posts, and I sit often at a desk, drive a lot, but I do exercise regularly - like 3-4 times a week. -BUT drink waaaay too many diet drinks.
Let's see if the advise of the board helps:
I am going to lay off the diet drinks, stand more often, take some vitamin B to perhaps smooth out the nerves - and see what happens.
Thanks guys!

Update from 'guest 2013'.. stopped the diet drinks cold turkey, <lol> went to water and iced tea.. Two weeks later, it got much better, I hate to even mention.. but , today.. totally nothing..
Here is what I did:
- Vitamin B complex pill / once a day
- Avoiding sitting for long periods at a time
- No Diet Drinks - (which, I even think made some aches, and pains go away)
I do miss that Diet Pepsi though...

I too have this same problem. I'm a 29 year old male. It feels as if there is a small amount of urine or pressure in the the tip of my penis. And it makes it feel as if I have to urinate all the time. Urinating helps for about 2 mins, then the feeling comes back worse. After 30-45 mins the feel lets up slightly but not much. It's worse when sitting but but if I cross my legs it helps. Standing is alot better and well as laying down with my knees to to my stomach. It is no an STD as I've never had sex or sexual contact.
I've been to a Urologist twice. The first time he did a urine test and it came back fine. No UTI or infections. They also scanned my bladder and I am emptying it all. He thought I may have had kidney stones and told me to wait a week and come back if the symptoms persisted. A week later and I'm back to see him, no relief at all. This time he proscribed an antibiotic to see if it may be an upset prostate. It's now a week later and still I'm in constant discomfort. I feel lost and hopeless at this point.
I'm hoping the next visit we take some serious steps to figure this out. All my problems feel as if they are coming from my Urethra about an inch from the tip of the penis. I am really starting to feel as if this is a nerve issue. As diet has had little effect. Some days are much worse than others and there seems to be no triggers for the worse days.
Before all this happened, I had a case of constipation a month prior. Then I noticed I was urinating a bit more than usual. Also at night I would awake as if I'd almost started to urinate on myself but never did. Just a sudden awake with the urge to urinate very urgently.
Please...I really need help.
