What Causes Burning Urination?

Im just nervous that I have been at a steady 2 as far as pain and burning during urination and now the erection pain. Does this sound right ? Is this something I have to wait out at this point or could it be something else?
You have acute Urethritis.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have Acute Urethritis.
I shall be happy if you can post me few more details to help me in making comments on your problem.
1) Did you have unprotected sex before you started getting these symptoms?
2) Did you have any discharge from the urethra?
3) Have you done swab test of a fluid from Urethra?
4)Have you done urine culture ?
Since you are improving with antibiotics and ant inflammatory medicines continue the same one along with anti inflammatory medicines like Diclofenac twice daily.Normally it takes 2 weeks for such a severe infection to get cured .
Please do swab test and urine culture to trace out organisms causing this infection and antibiotic to which they are sensitive to ,so that you can take appropriate antibiotics,This will help to control the infection quickly.
Ensure to drink more water .This will keep your urine dilute and help to reduce dysuria.
Ensure to avoid any sexual activities till you get cured completely.
As regards pain during erection .It is due to inflammation of the urethra secondary to infection.This will get resolved once your Urethritis gets cured.
Hope I have answered your query ,please feel free to ask if you have more questions ,
I shall be happy to help you
Thanks and Regards.

The urologist says that my 7 days of antibiotic are up I have no more meds left and the DR gave me just another 2 days of anti inflammatory and Uribel and told me that I would get better and dont need any more meds. Should I go back to him for more antienflamatory ? I did have all the urine tested and everything came back negative. today will be exactly 2 weeks since this happened and 1 week since I started to get better. I just want to know if theres anything else I can do.

It should get resolved within a week.
