What Causes Pressure Feeling On Penis Head After Intercourse?

Posted on Thu, 20 Aug 2015

Question: during one drunken night, I had sex with someone I shouldn't have. she took out a condom, and I'm almost certain it was used. it has been about 10 days since then. the next day, I really felt no interest in others. a couple days later, after showering, I made sure things were still working, they were. though I had gotten some lint caught toward the head. In the shower, I removed this. I had a bit of discomfort for the rest of the day, but everything healed fine. Toward the top of my penis head, I have the constant feeling like there is a little pressure. When I pee, it does not hurt, but I cannot apply pressure to the spray. I have had no diarrhea till last night. I slept without my A/C on. I woke up a few times to go to the bathroom. I have had a medical history of ringworm, thrush on the tongue, and fungal ear infections before. I will go in for tests today.

Brief Answer:
Nothing indicating an infection from the provided information sir

Detailed Answer:
Hello sir and welcome.

Thank you for writing to us.

I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. So far, based on the provided information there are no definite symptoms pointing towards the possibility of any infections sir.

All the infections that have a very short incubation period have definite symptoms that you do not seem to have, so most of the tests will return normal results. Only HIV will have to be conducted by the 28th day since sexual contact using a test called HIV DUO test which is about 98.5% accurate.

In my opinion if anything is found, it will most probably be a fungal/yeast infection, and nothing more. I hope you find my response helpful sir. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I am always here to help.

Best wishes.

I also had some tingling under my right eye this week. The little bit I had over my lip basically disappeared after shaving. Today, a little on my tongue. I look. It seems fine. Just a little white. The issue with discomfort toward the top of the urethra below the head and the trouble with pressure isn't very symptomatic of anything particular?

Brief Answer:
Nothing specific, currently no reason to worry

Detailed Answer:
Hello once again sir.

The issue with discomfort is not directly indicative of anything, but could be at times associated with mild yeast infections or urinary tract infections (UTIs), although UTIs will have numerous other symptoms, thus ruling them out.

As for the tingling, can be brought about by anxiety as well so nothing to really worry about for now sir. Let us wait and watch and if there is anything worth reporting, please write to me or attach an image to our discussion for my viewing.

Best wishes.
