I have had the same thing and I found out I have mycroplasma and even though it shows up negitive I have to keep doing the tests maybe 2-4 times and it will show up! 90% of doctors don't test you for it when you do a regular test so please tell them to test you for it!! I had to see many doctors and then finally went to a sexual health clinic and they found I had that

well what did you do after that? Did you take some antibiotics? I also tested positive to mycoplasma genitalium, I did an antibiogram to see exactly what antibniotics it was susceptible to, I did the cure but nothing change. I totally hope it works for you though :) Just saying that finding this thing in you doesn't mean it's causing it. We have all type of weird bateria in our urethra/body

This is the same with me, I have experienced it randomly throughout my life at random times and I have never had s urine or kidney infection. This most recent time I felt it doesn't make any sense as I haven't had sex recently, the only thing I've drank was water all day and 1 glass of wine, I haven't eaten anything acidic and I don't have any other symptoms like a fever, cloudy urine etc

Hello guys, I want to share my story. I have been reading this and other similar topics on the internet and they have been a great help for me. I rarely posted. When I did, my nickname was vaaal or vaaal88.
I have had this problem since April 2016, so one year and a half ago. I am happy to say that now I am much better, but let me go in order. If you just want to know what helped, go at the end of this post.
At that time I was having a “colorful” sexual life, with different sexual partner one after another. The encouters were protected, but the oral was not. Also, *one* encounter was not protected at all (stupid, I know). However, please pay attention to this: I am not sure any of these encounter caused this. It may just be random. I believe that inferring from time series is very dangerous, as we may be biased in believing that some cause effect mechanism exists when there is not.
Anyway, this is my story. I am around 30yo and I live in the UK. My symptoms started on the 4th of April 2016. Please notice that since one year prior to that, I had post voiding dribbling of urine. On the 4th of April 2016 I went in the bathroom to pee. This has always been a small nuisance, not cause by prostate issue (I was said), and I just learnt to live with it. That day after peeing I felt an annoying tingling and some (classic) dribbling. I felt like there was something still in my urethra that I couldnt’ get out. I masturbated, but this didn’t help and caused more dribbling and irritation. That’s how my nightmare started. For the next 6 months I kept having these syntomps: irritation, tingling, burning on the glans. These syntomps were particularly stronger after having urinated, but where mostly there ALL DAY LONG.
Life was extremely difficult and, like you, I had suicidal thoughts. My glans was irritated all the time, I ALWAYS felt like there was something inside the urethral tube. Obviously I started looking on the internet for reasons to this problem and, unwillingly, I became and expert of urinary-related issues. I think this is shared amongst all of us long-time sufferer.
Fortunately, I also kept a diary since the very beginning of this problem, so that I know exactly what I did, what I tried, and how I felt at each point. Keep a diary has been extremely important as I could track how good I was doing. I realize that when people feel bad, they overestimated how bad they have been in the past. Reading a diary and realizing that just couple of days earlier you were better (and thus you most likely are going to be better again soon) is a big, big help.

Anyway. The first things I did was to get tested for sexual disease. I was always clean to everything. Nevertheless, I was prescribed several antibiotics. At the beginning I tried doxycycline which seemed to work, but after a week the symptoms came back. After that, the next antibiotics had less and less effect, and at a certain point they didn’t work at all. I tried many antibiotics. I also tried some antifungal medication and some other general urinary medicine. This is a list of the stuff I tried during the first 9months. None of these worked.

I tested (multiple times) at the sexual clinic. I also tested privately for other stds, by using an private service you can find online which tested for the following:
Chlamydia
Gonorrhoea
Trichomonas
Gardnerella
Mycoplasma
Ureaplasma

Herpes Simplex
Herpes Simplex II
HIV
Syphilis
Hepatitis B
Hepatitis C
I was negative to all of this. I did (not in the UK but in my native country) urine and semen culture. One time from the semen culture it resulted that I had some mycoplasma. The lab did an antibiogram on the culture (that is, checking what antibiotics is it sensitive to) and it resulted mycocycline, together with doxycicline (which I had taken already). When I repeated the same culture few days later, the mycoplasma didn’t appear anymore. I did the antibiotics cure anyway but, as you can imagine, it didn’t work.

After around 6 months, however, I started feeling better. The first 6 months were just horrible, horrible, horrible. Then, it was less horrible, and some days I felt that I may actually survive this. During the first 6 months my average of pain/discomfort was 8. After that, for the next 3 month or so, it was 6 ½. This is still a lot and I still thought I couldnt’ leave with that. However, slowly improving gave me hope. Why was I improving though? No idea.
BTW what did the doctor say? Let me say that I have nothing but bad words for the UK health care system. It is, indeed, utter sh*t. Not only is swamped in burocracy, but the doctors are just not prepared for dealing with anything but the most stupid disease. In my case, they were of no help. Of course some urologist diagnosed prostatitis, but as you may know this is just the name that they use when they don’t know hwat the heck is going on. In my case, my prostate didn’t look swollen.
After some months and some other failed attempt I did another trip in my native country. Here, thanks to the cheaper healthcare system, I did testicular scan (it resulted I have a varicocele, which I don’t think is related to all of this), prostate scan, bladder scan, retograde cystography. All these test returned normal results.
At this point, with my pain diminishing, I actually realized that all of this was connected with URINATION. This was difficult to realize during the first time, since I was in pain most of the time. But now it was clear that the pain was caused by urinating. Please let me be clear: I wouldn’t have trouble urinating, but I would have pain after having done it (irritation, tingling, dribble of urine) that lasted for hours. My glans always looked normal, a part from a little reddness around the phrenulum.
At this point I started to go for the dermatological cause. I went to a dermatologist and to an urologist and I think that’s the point where I really improved. Ironically, none of these two good doctors were in the UK, where it seems that there is NO good doctor at all, good Lord.
Briefly, (and summarizing what the 2 doctors said), the dribbling of urine that I had since 1 year priori the onset of my problem, may have cause a general irritation of the tube. This would explain why I felt mostly irritated after urination. The urine or the irritation generated a dermatological condition of the glans that would cause tingling etc.
Now, I am not sure that this is actually a correct diagnosis. After I pee I also feel some weird (but difficult to describe) feelign in my scrotum. How does this match with the diagnosis? No idea.
The urologist prescribed my terazosin. This must be taken for a couple of months to have effect, but it basically diminished the dribbling. And, incredibly, it worked!! Do not get your hopes up: this was not a COMPLETE solution. I still had (and have) some dribbling, but it really helps. With the improvement of the dribbling, the tinglint and irritation also went away.
I am still taking terazosin one a day (doesn’t have any controindication) and I probably will have to all my life.
Another thing that really helped was the steroid cream. I really suggest you try this, but DO NOT EXAGGERATE. At the beginning when I tried it the effect was INCREDIBLE, and I thought I was completely cured. However, I had an horrible reaction to it: I was putting it everyday more than once a day. At some point I noticed my penis become more red and somehow wrinkly. One day after masturbation, when it went soft again, I noticed that my pain was all wrinkly, and the skin became SUPER DRY, like it seemed like paper. This was super horrible, I got terribly scared and I went to ER. Anyway with couple of days this went away, but lesson learn: do not abuse the steroid cream. But I have another solution for you: the dermatologist suggested to use the extract from the cardiospermum plant. You can find it in the florasone cream (they sell it through amazon, I think the vendor is in the states). This is similar to steroid but withouth the controindication. I used it very happily, and this also contributed to improving my symptoms.

So, slowly but steadely, I improved and improved. The Terazosin, together with several creams, contributed to this the most. I also started a routine to keep the glans clean. After peeing I wash it throuhgly. Generally I will still have some dribbling. If I do, I go back to the bathroom and wash it again. I do this even when I am at work. If I don’t do this, the irritation starts. If I do this, the irritation is still there, but is very manageable and quickly disappear. This means that everytime that I have to go in the bathroom, I actually have to go twice one after another ( I cannot just wait in the bathroom, as the dribbling is caused by the movement, and the irritation starts only when I move, so when I go from the bathroom back to my desk).
I can happily say that my life is now completely liveable. I am not in the state when I am scaringly looking for solution on the internet. I think that even if I have to leave with this all my life, I would still be happy. Btw since now I am also quite fine, I am rarely putting any cream there anymore.
Nowadays my condition does not limit me anymore. Before I had a complete social withdrawal, for obvious reason. Today I only have to be careful to plan my “urination” time wisely (as I need to be able to wash it and probably to go back to the bathroom twice).

Even this last part is now improving. Recently I have been considering the possibility that my urine may be infected, and thus causing the irritation. Of course, I have considered this in the past already, that’s why I took the antifungal and antibiotics. Now I am trying something different: cut the sugar. If it’s a candida infection, it may be candida glabrata, a resistant type of fungus. I am not sure if this will get rid of the irritation completely, but I will let you know. The good thing is that I am trying this kinda of “idly”: if it works, great! If it doesn’t… whatever! My life is still great now.

SUMMARY: I believe that my urine may have cause irritation on the glans/phernulum. I take terazosin to decrease the dribbling. This works but it takes a couple of months to work. To help the irritation, what worked was steroid cream and cardiospermum cream (e.g.you can get florasone from amazon, but I know that some country have other version as well. I am in UK and I could only find the florasone one). Also, and equally important: wash thoroughly after peeing, and also after the dribbling. Keep it clean.

If I realize that reducing sugar results in a big improvement,I will be back updating you guys.

Finally, I want to say to all the sufferers out there: hold on guys. I know what you are goign through. Is terrible, and it makes you feel like your life is going to end. My advice is: just hold on. THis is most likely going to go away. Keep trying different stuff, and think rationally about what it could be. KEEP A DIARY. Try different solution. Think scientifically about what you could have, how you could cure it, and what to do to cure it.
Also, if you are in the UK (but probably applies elsewhere): there are ways to overcome this horrible, horrible healthcare system we have here. Do not be afraid to try those. I am not suggesting anything illegalt, but just: be smart. If you want to try a new antibiotics because a paper suggest that it may be useful, PRINT IT AND BRING IT TO YOUR GP. Be convincing, *whatever it takes*. You know what I mean. Good luck guys, my thoughts are for all you.
I will keep reading regularly this topic. If you write, I will reply

Also, some other information is worth sharing. Someone was wondering if this is something we can give to someone through sex. I don’t know. During all this time (and just since the beginning of my disease!) I had only one, lovely, unique girlfriend. At the beginning we didn’t have sex because of my problem (I was feeling to depressed for doing any). Then we did, with protection. After having reassurance from all those tests and all those doctors that I did NOT have any infections, we started doing it without any protection. Not we do it regularly, mostly without protection. She doesn’t have any problem.
Also, my “native country” where I did the urine and sement culture is Italy. In Italy these an other tests are around 40 pounds, nothing compared to the UK where you cannot really get this tests privately even if you wanted -___-
Ah, and btw, I also considered other options: strictures, diverticulum, etc. I didn an MRi and it was all good. As usual :P

Not sure if anyone still checks but I had similar symptoms, no STD, burning coming and going, tingling, and after extensive searching online discovered know one really knows. So I went to a homeopathic doctor and within a few hours the symptoms were gone. They began coming back about a week later but took the next dose and again the symptoms went away. Do research and check it out. Hope it helps

A reply to yourself and also a lot of other people here especially those who have tried a LOT on antibiotics it is most likely at this point thrush...

Men can get thrush especially after taking lots of antibiotics and it can cause UTI type symptoms and usually more antibiotics makes it worse and embeds it further.

Try taking a fluconozole tablet and using thrush cream for a few weeks and there is a pretty high likelihood it will get better (worked for me)
