What Causes Pressure In Perineum, Burning Upon Urination And Scrotum Ache?

Had pressure in perineum, burning upon urination, scotum ache. Put me on Cipro and the side effects worse than the other problem. Off Cipro. Have yeast infection. Will yest infection cause feeling that you could urinate, even though you just did? Still have some pressure in perineum. Should I be worried?

Thanks for contacting HCM with your health care questions.

I am sorry to hear that you are having burning on urination and pain in the perineum area. From your description it sounds like you have a prostate infection. The prostate is a gland at the base of the penis that produces mucus in semen and gets infected frequently in sexually active men. The treatment is a long course of antibiotics up to 1 month. The usual drug is cipro but since you stopped it prematurely due to side effects you need to seek you doctor to start an antibiotic that will treat the infection.

Your other question is if a yeast infection can cause the burning and pressure, The answer is not really. Yeast is rarely a offending infection that causes urinary or bladder infections.

In summary I think you have a prostate infection and I recommend that you seek medical attention for full treatment of your infection.

I hope this answers your question. Please contact HCM again with any of your health care concerns
