guys, i posted before about this.. ive had it for 6 years.. after doing some reseach lately i went to another doctor and it turned out to be e. coli in my prostate.. however its chronic.. meaning if i kill it with antibiotics it could easily come back.. but atleast now i know.. i went to many many doctors.. some told me it was psychological, some told me it was hemoriods and some said non bacterial prostatitis.. they dont know.. make sure to check for E. coli and yeast.. make sure he presses on ur prostate and takes what comes out on a dish and tests it.. if they tell u something without testing u they dont know.. i spent 6 years with this cuz the docs i originally went to didnt inspect the situation enuff..
good luck to u guys.. ill keep u posted on the treatment and how its workin out for me..

I have to say I have a similar problem. I went through prostatitis 4-5 months ago and I got this anal burning/itching c**p at the beginning of it. After 6 weeks of antibiotics the infection cleared, but I developed yeast overgrowth which seemed to aggravate the recurring back-end issue. I'm done with the yest medication now, things are at least looking better down there (no skin redness, etc.) but the burn keeps coming back. It's almost always accompanied by prostate irritation, especially during bowel movement.
The yeast medication helped the problem a little it's not as severe, now. It used to be hell of a burn, stuff leaking from down there, very loose stool. Probiotics also may have contributed to it getting better. I have been taking them daily, a few times a suggested daily dose. Tried several brands. Unfortunately the expensive stuff (30-40 bucks a box) seems to work better and is easier on the stomach.
After this infection (and antibiotics - i really suspect this is the cause of the gut problem) I became really sensitive to foods. I noticed that I get those burns when I eat certain hot spices. I try to avoid them, but sometimes even small amounts trigger this.
I wish you all good luck.

I have the exact same symptoms. Itchy feeling on the tip of my penis, and when touching it all the way down to my scrotum a very itchy feeling comes on in my anus. It's totally weird and started a few weeks ago. My girlfriend had a yeast infection and I wasn't using a condom with her when she returned from a trip (claiming it was gone)
I have not yet seen my doctor but plan on doing so tomorrow. I'm 26 and this is really weird. I've never had an STD before or anything wrong down there. Any new ideas?
This forum has been a god send. I've been suffering from the exact symptoms described here for about 8 months now, and it's driving me crazy. It all started after I received unprotected oral sex from a stranger (I know.. I know). I first noticed that things weren't right down there a few days later when I felt some irritation at the tip of my penis. Once I was convinced that something wasn't right, I went to an STD clinic who thought it might be a bacterial infection. They tested me and gave me some antibiotics, thinking that that would clear things up. Tests eventually came back negative, and nothing changed. Over a couple weeks the irritation spread and it turned into a burning sensation around the gland of my penis, under my foreskin. I immediately went back to the clinic where a doctor inspected me and told me that I had yeast-induced Balanitis. She prescribed me an anti-fungal cream, which actually ended up clearing the red spots on my penis over night. But the internal irritation remained. After a couple more days, the red spots came back and the irritation spread to the part between my legs and anus. I've been yo yo'ing with various degrees of irritation in the genital area ever since.
Here are some of the things I've noticed. Pulling back my foreskin and leaving it that way for the day actually makes the irritation at the tip less severe. Wearing boxers also helps. I've also tried spreading tea-tree oil cream around my penis and anus, which actually helped control the symptoms. That being said, the problem keeps coming back. I also feel a slight dull pain in my rectum whenever I defecate or ejaculate, which suggests to me that the prostate might be infected. Sitting in a tub of water mixed with vinegar at the start of the day also helped enormously.. but is obviously inconvenient.
So far every single test I've taken has been negative. My last tests, taken at 7 months, came back negative for both HIV and Herpes 1&2. Whatever this is, it's not a common STD. I asked two different STD doctors if it could be HPV, and both of them said no. All urine samples have come back negative.
Other things to take into consideration is the fact that I was extremely stressed out when the infection first began... to the point where I was medicated to help me sleep and was given 2 weeks off of from work. I lost 30 pounds in the span of 2 months... just from stress and not eating. My stress has since gone away.. except for the stress I feel over this problem.
Personally, I think it's a yeast infection that has spread to the anus and or prostate. Given the fact that the anti-fungal cream was able to treat my balanitis.. just not the burning sensation.. which I find difficult to pin point (probably internal).
Now the good news: my doctor let me try diflucan for 2 weeks.. and this actually cleared things up after a week or so.. and I stupidly did not continue the treatment..since I thought I was cured. Once the symptoms resumed, however, I took the remaining 6 pills I had. which once again helped the symptoms.. 2 weeks later however, the problem came back again. It took about 3-4 days for me to notice any difference.
I am now on diflucan again.. this is my 3rd day... and will continue the treatment until the end. This new doctor suggested that she might extend the prescription if I notice a significant difference but still some irritation. Apparently you have to continue taking the treatment a week or so after all the symptoms have cleared. I'll keep everyone posted on my progress.
Thanks for reading.. and good luck everyone!
i have all these syptoms wit it causing chest 0pains i have to say its herpes guys posibly warts pid also is wha i was told i start the medication soon ill post back and let u know but check those things out adnd alcohol intensifies the illness so do drugs as lon g as i molve i dont fel it so im suggesting that herpes can affect more then just the penis and unus get checked
You should start looking into allergins and chemicals that you are reacting to.
You wil have to waste some money and time on trial and error. That's what happens with me.
My body is sensitive that It reacts to alot of things. Like soaps. Detergents. Toothpastes.
Etc. it could. Be something you eat regularly and so just totally take for granted. Like a multivitamin. Many
Of them have screwed me up. Or it could be an herb you eat.
Start Eliminating things one. By one. That's what I always do.
I'm also suffering from these symptoms: Itching/burning/tickling/stinging in the tip of urethra and exactly the same irritation just inside the anus. It's been driving me insane for the last 5 months. I've had the STI tests and they've come back clear. I've been prescribed creams and antibiotics but none have done any good. My doctor seems mystified and has said that I should go to an STI clinic--not very inspiring because I am certain this is NOT an STI. All very frustrating. Any help or advice would be very welcome.
I am a 30 yr old male and I have the same issue! I went to the std clinic 2wice and both came up negative, tho i was treated with the pink pills, it worked for a few days, then this pain came back! stomach feels inflammed which in turn makes me feel full of pee, I also have the slight burn /itch thing in my anus. I jus purchased probiotic pills today And hopping this will work, so far so good, but it's still there. After reading this i see this probl has been happening to us men for years! There has to be an answer. I honestly think its IbS being I had it Before. And the symptoms where kinda the same, excePt for this itchy tingle in the penis thing and constent full bladder. Someone Please help us!
Do any of you who mention "itchy" anus have an anal fissure? I have had an anal fissure for over fifteen years and I get flare ups every once in a while. Flare ups include severe pain while showering or bright red blood on toilet paper when wiping. Anyway, my penis and prostate seem constricted whenever the fissure reopens (flares up, as I call it). I've had more severe symptoms recently that made me think I had a urinary tract infection or prostatitis (frequent urination, pain and discomfort in genitals).
Same problems as described above. It started 20 days after a sexual encounter. I had an 8 panel std test at 3 months and at 6 months, all negative except herpes virus 1. I knew that would be positive because i had a cold sore on my lip as a kid. So now symptoms are at 7 months are dry red irritated slightly burning penis, itchy anus, pain in left hip, itchy irritated eye lash line, and upper back pain. I hope this gets better on it's own...carl
Has anyone got the better of this nasty little affliction yet? It seems like no one has had any success. I'm contemplating going to the STD clinic--but I'm certain this is no STD becuase I've had the same partner for 5 years--doctors seem puzzled by our symptoms and try to fob us off--not acceptable! Whatever it is that us fellas have, it needs to be sorted. It is driving me up the wall.
i have same problem,tell me what it is.
Any cure yet? Feel the same thing
Have you been able to resolve this? I have the same symptoms with the same history...
I also had this problem and it was soo irritating
Try rinsing your penis with pure dettol and then rub toothpaste on it
It cures the burning after peeing
