Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi I have been on accutane for almost five months, I have ten days left in my prescribed dose and I noticed my urethra was red. My penis hurts when touching my pants and when I tried to pee this morning my urethra was closed but after three seconds enough pressure built up to release the urine. I am pretty scared so can you please tell me what to do, and if it means anything I am not sexually active so it's not an std.
Dear Friend. Hi , I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern. This can occur due to one of the following reasons : 1. Acute Urethritis 2. Prostatitis 3. Ureteric Stone 4. Urinary Tract Infection. 5. Insect Bite Since you are not sexually active , chances of STD are not there. It would be difficult to comment upon further without examination. So , you should get yourself checked by a Urologist. And get an Ultrasound Abdomen with KUB. This is my personal opinion based on details available here. If you want to discuss your issues further, you may please ask us Stay Healthy. Dr Anshul Varshney , MD
