Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.

These symptoms which you are experiencing could be indicative of a genito-urinary infection. It is possible that you could be having a urethritis (i.e. a type of genito-urinary infection where there is inflammation of the urinary passage), which is getting aggravated by the friction and exposure during sexual intercourse.

I would advise you to have a urine culture test done and if there is an infection detected, you will need appropriate antibiotics. In the meantime drink plenty of water (3 to 4 litres per day) and avoid sexual intercourse for a few days till your problem is resolved.

Wish you all the best.
