Brief Answer:
It is likely to be due to inflammation of urethra

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for query .

Burning urination with normal urine examination can be mostly due to inflammation of urethra.(Urethritis) or due to highly concentrated urine resulting from less water intake .

Since you do not have pain in abdomen it is unlikely that you have stone disease .

Since urine routine test can be normal one has to do urine culture to rule out any bacterial infection .This will also help to decide to take appropriate antibiotic as per culture report (If it detects bacterial infection )

Taking urinary antiseptic like Nitrofurantoin along with urine alkalizer Citralka will help to reduce the pain and burning urination .

Get the prescription of medicines from your family Physician.

Ensure to drink more water.To keep your urine dilute This will help to control dysuria.

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.

Thanks for follow up .

Cancer of the bladder usually presents with XXXXXXX hematuria (Blood in urine) where as your age (40 years ) goes against cancer of prostate .More over cancer of prostate will be presented with increased frequency for urination ,urgency ,nocturia and hematuria etc which .

There is no possibility of both these conditions .Do not get worried about the what you do not have or imaginary diseases .

Brief Answer:
You do not have Cancer of Prostate

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for follow up .I have mentioned in my earlier reply that you do not have cancer of the prostate at all .

I do not understand the rationale behind thinking about the whether cancer of the prostate is curable or not when it is no there .

You can take Norfloxacin twice daily till you get your urine culture report.

Try to allay your anxiety .You may get your blood test for Serum PSA done to rule out cancer of prostate .

Thanks and Regards.

Brief Answer:
You have UTI

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for uploading reports
Your urine culture report reveals infection (UTI) causative organisms being E-Coli .

The no 100000 is a colony count per ml which is common scientific method and practice to denote the number of colony of bacteria per ml.You need not go in detail about it .

You need to continue Nitrofurantoin which I have suggested in my earlier reply along with Norfloxacin twice daily for 10 days .

It will help to resolve your problem .
