Suggest Treatment For Burning Sensation On The Tip Of The Penis

I have a burning at the tip of my penis. It was pretty intense for about four days. I saw my doctor. They checked the urine and all was fine. Tested for clamydia and gonnarhea and test were negative. Pain subsided but did not go away. Saw doctor again. Urine tested normal. Did prostate check and he said it was not as firm as he would expect, kind of mushy. Prescribed antibiotic doxycycline hydrate and I ve taken 6 out of 10 days. No changes except today pain in penis seems worse. Pain seems worse when sitting versus standing.

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

If you have taken antibiotics and the pain is persisting then you need to get your testes clinically examined in detail. The possibilities of chlamydia, gonorrhea and other urinary infections is ruled out. If your urine culture is sterile and does not show any growths then most likely there is no infection. However a testes ultrasound examination might be suggested as you are having more pain when sitting as compared to standing. That will show any problems with testes, epididymis and blood supply.
