Irritation In Penis While Urinating, Frequent Urination, Unable To Maintain Erection. Solution?

Hi, when I urinate my penis feels irritated and I feel the need to go more often, the sack of my testicles often goes tight and uncomfortable and I have found it difficult to maintain an erection for several months now. I am a 36 year old male and yes I smoke 10-15 cigarettes a day and drink 15 units of alcohol per week. I m worried about the erection problem is there any advice?
