What Causes Burning Sensation While Urinating In A Child?

My son is 10 years old and woke up at 3am this morning and said that it stung when he tried to pee. He takes his showers before bed, and I was wondering if he may have gotten soap up there. I had him go pee again around 5am and he said he was fine, and has been all morning. Could it just have been soap from his shower???

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hello. I just read through your question.
The most common reason for his complaint is irritation around the urethral opening. This very well could have been from the shower,as you say. Now that he is well, I wouldn't change his routine unless it happens again.
I find this answer helpful
