Examination of penile discharge and urine required

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on HealthcareMagic.

Penile discharge on applying pressure suggests an infection in the reproductive tract.
Its good that you have got test for sexually transmitted infection (STI) and they all are negative.
I suggest you to get a microbiological examination of the penile discharge and also urine examination- routine.
These investigations will detect infection in the urine or discharge. And clear your doubts.

As far as HIV is concerned, I don't see any concerns about HIV. But in case any infection is detected, appropriate antibiotics can be started.

Thanks and take care
