I do, before this time, i had sex and a burning sensation started increasing alot in my urethra and somewhat my penis started to get more sensitive somehow. I got an antibiotic shot for gonohrea which eased the pain by alot, but i still have this faint sensation. Thanks alot for yoy previous answer .

Brief Answer:
culture and sensitivity test required

Detailed Answer:
Hi
If you had an unprotected previous exposure then there is chance of STD.
A single shot of penicillin is not enough.
Please get urine culture and sensitivity test done.
This is important to find out causative agent and appropriate antibiotic to be used.
A full course of antibiotic might be required to eliminate infection.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you
