Suggest Treatment For Pain And Burning Sensation In The Urethra

Posted on Wed, 2 Nov 2016

Question: Hello again Dr. XXXXXXX

I wanted to update you about my condition from before readings.
I have stopped doing risky sexual behaviors ever since the last incident 3 weeks ago and i intend to keep it that way till marriage. Till today i have no lesions/sores/ or anything abnormally visible. But pain and burning in urethra and anus still present.
I have stopped taking Nitrofurantoin since 5 days now because i want to do a urine and semen culture test and the doctor said that i have to stop antibiotics for atleast 7 days before such a test, is that true?
Anyhow i will update you with results once i get them.

Tsince you do not have any lesion and your symptoms like burning .pain are likely to be residual infection and have to continue taking Nitrofurantoin for 4 weeks more.

Will make comments after going through your reports
