Hopefullycured, thanks for your post. I received oral sex only and got the burning sensation, redness and irritation at the tip, pricking sensation inside head of penis, testicle pain, discharge with big bowel movements and whenever I pee it comes out crooked a lot of times unless I have to go really bad. I took all the tests: blood, urine and swab and everything always came out negative about the 30 times I did it yet the symptoms still are here. I've taken tons of antibiotics, doxycycline included, and none of them helped. I actually have never used any creams or anything like that so idk if that's something I would want to look into but I really want this problem to go away forever. I've had this for a long time and I'm curious to know if there is any other info you can give me to help me get cured like yourself. I pray everyday for this problem to be gone. Please write me back asap. Thanks.

Hi Mystery007, the nystatin and triamcinolone cream was an anti-fungal cream and I think I was prescribed it so it would prevent any infection from the antibiotics I took. Ask your doctor if you can be prescribed it to try to treat your condition. What have the doctors said after all the treatment you received and still no progress? Hopefully the cream works out for you.
I was reading posts on another forum, many people have the same problems including those who got them after oral sex (link: http://www.ourhealth.com/conditions/sexual-conditions/tingling-at-the-end-of-penis?p=1). A few people on that forum mentioned nerve damage in the penis that could cause the irritation in the penis. One person went to a doctor who agreed with that assessment and said that the nerves would eventually recover. The past couple days I would feel very brief soreness/irritation at the tip of my penis...it was on and off, not as severe as before, but still annoying! I hope you and others can find some relief from these symptoms.

The doctors said that at this point they either don't know or it's in my head. I'm so fed up with this c**p and I just want it gone but no one is willing to give me the help I need to get rid of this. Is the nystatin and triamcinolone cream supposed to help with any infection or only ones from antibiotics? I've had this problem for almost 2 years now and I don't see it recovering on it's own.. Something needs to be done about it..

Same thing happened to me. Have had this for 3 months now im about ready to give up and just kill myself rather than deal with the constant pain all day. I received unprotected oral sex and then 2 days later my urethra started burning, bladder started burning, started getting a constant need to urinate and i have that pin feeling in my urethea once in a while and it feels like theres a tennis ball in my prostate. Spent about 2k on dr visits and tests, everythjng came back negative and they have no idea what it is. Ive taken tones of antibiotics with no relief. What the hell is going on with us? What is this? As the weeks go by i lose hope more and more that i will ever be the same again.

Besides the symptoms you listed are there anymore symptoms you are experiencing? I'm curious because I've had the symptoms you have plus a few more.. Testicle pain, redness/irritation at the tip and coldness in my genitals, discharge with big bowel movements.. Have you had those too?
Loading...
No discharge but occasional tenderness at the tip and i had painful testicles for about a week after symptoms started, i think because i was running 4-6 miles a day and once i caught whatever it is we have, my testicles could no longer handle running. I had to stop cold turkey and thats when the testcle pain stopped but everythjng else remains. Legitimately ruined my life. I cant believe youve been dealing with this for 2 years i feel your pain i cant even imagine going through this for another year and 9 months just to still be no closer to an answer than before. At one of the clinics i went to they mentioned that there have been men coming in with the same complaints/symptoms as me but they have no clue. All the other urologist i have seen have been extremely clueless. Even went to an accupuncturist to no avail.
Loading...
Yeah I was thinking about going to an acupuncturist too but I've heard it hasn't helped so I haven't really thought about going there to much.. U said u started getting your symptoms only 2 days after receiving oral sex? You didn't have sex with the girl? Only had oral performed on u?
Loading...
Yup just received oral that was it. Symptoms appeared 2 days later and have persisted all this time. I have yet another uro appt tomorrow but ive lost all faith in them anyway.
Loading...
Ok well that must of been today so let me know what the doctor said.. Also did you ever get in touch with the girl? If so what happened with that?
Loading...
The girl refuses to answer any of my texts and i was being really cool about it too so shes just a low life. But the Dr said that my last urinalysis showed a small amount of staph and that none of the 4 or 5 antibiotics i was previously on would have killed it so he put me on a 14 day script of Rifampin. He said theres only abou a 30% chance that this is all due to staph but theres a chance nonetheless. Did your Drs ever look into that possibility? What about interstitial cystitis, did your Drs ever look into that by doing a cystoscopy?
Loading...
Yeah of course she isn't answering your texts.. That's what I was dealing with too and the girl was talking with me about it before she stopped talking to me too.. The staph woulda showed up in my urine as an infection if I had it right? Well see if that works and keep me updated.. All of my blood tests whether it be for STDs or regular labs are always negative and show no signs of infection or anything.. I just got my latest ones back about an hour ago.. It was ALL normal so idk this is so weird. In my case like I was saying before I don't think it was within a few days afterwards it was more like weeks but it was so long ago I'm not quite sure but if I had to bet it wasn't near as close as yours and everyone else's. So that makes it even more weird and makes me think even more that it has nothing to do with anything sexual but something else that could be causing me all these problems that mimics STD properties. They did but I was told by other doctors it would be a waste and every time I knew of someone getting it they said nothing was found. Besides I'm not to crazy about that c**p being shoved up into there.. I've been through everything bro it's crazy how much I've done in the past almost 2 years..

Yours was weeks after your encounter?? Damn.. It probably doesnt have to do with the girl then. U might have IC. I dont want to do the cystoscopy either but if this latest round of antibiotics doesnt work, im gonna have to because i cant stand living like this. For me i think its coming down to staph, or IC. I have had a mild form of IC for 10 years since i was 17 but Drs have told me that an infection can trigger the IC to worsen. So i may have been infected with say gonnorhea from that girl and i had it treated literally 24 hours later but it still triggered a more severe stage of IC in me despite treating the infection in a quick hurry. I really hope its staph cause thats 100% curable but im preparing myself to have to deal with this f*****g sh*t for a long time cause im starting to believe its IC.

It might of been I just really don't remember because it was so long ago that all this happened and at that time I wasn't really paying attention thinking this would go away from what I remember it wasn't a day or two later because I probably would of tied it directly to the girl but I'm not sure now.. How do you check for Staph? You said you've had this mildly for 10 years but before these symptoms I have now, I never had anything wrong with me ever. What exactly is IC and what are the symptoms of it and how long does it last? Also like I said before, I just got my lab results back from doing the yearly physical tests like thyroid and white blood cell count (to see if there is an infection in the body) and everything came back negative. Nothing was wrong with me as far as the test results are concerned.

IC can present in a number of ways. For me it was just frequent urination for years that was it. Ever since i was 17-18 i havent been able to sleep through the night without getting up to use the bathroom multiple times and i urinate like 25 times a day. Thats one symptom of IC, another is pain in the urethra, groin area, pain with urination and a feeling of a "ball" being in your prostate. You can have just one symptom, or you can have them all. I never ever had any symptoms besides frequent urination until all this started with this girl. IC is a lifetime illness and i was cool with going to the bathroom a lot even though it sucked but now that i have pain too it really sucks, as you know. Usually they diagnose it when there are no other explanations such as UTI, STD, kidney stones, cancer and so forth. Its diagnosed through cystoscopy theres no blood test for it, but i always knew i had it i just never cared much until the pain started. There is treatment though theres a drug called Elmiron it takes a long time to work but honestly it sounds like it definitely works from the people ive talked to that are on it. Im going to start taking it but it could be up to 6 months or a year before it starts to work. Some people it works in as little as 3 months. Thats your next move u gotta have your doctors look into interstitial cystitis because u could be just a drug away from getting your life back. I know u dont want to do the cystoscope so maybe u could have a dr prescribe u Elmiron without doing it and if theres no improvement after a very long time, then your still in the same place you are now anyway. If there is improvement, then bang ur back to being you. Its worth a shot ask your doctors about it.

I've also been going through this same situation started a few days after having unprotected oral sex from a girl I met and had protected vaginal sec with her. No discharge, slight tingling sensation near the tip of the penis, feels like urine is trapped in the urethral. When I do urinate it's ver little and leaves my penis tingling for about 10 minutes after. I noticed that the feeling is less irritating when I've been drinking lots of water. No pain in my testicles or groin area. Girl got tested came back negative. Going in to see my doctor next week. Any new info would be great.
