What Causes Soreness In The Penis While Urinating?
My 12 year old son complained of soreness in his penis while urinating. The doctor requested an ultrasound for the bladder where they looked at the bladder full then again empty. The doctor said everything is fine and implied my son my be "thinking too much" about it. Said we should not ask him about it. 5 months later my son tells me the pain is still there and has been all along. I will have to take him back to the doctor but don't know what tests to ask for.

Hi Dear !! Thanks for your query to HCM .
Read and reviewed your query and health concerns.
My opinion-
IN the given situation, Your son seems to be having-UTI(Urinary Tract Infection),cause of which needs to be investigated.
Consult General Surgeon / Urologist to check up the various possibilities of UTI, which could need -UA(Urine Analysis)/ Urine Culture for routine
and for AFB-(acid fast organisms-like TB).
Any congenital anomaly higher up in the Urinary system/ or could be from meatal / or prepucial urethral stenosis, could be causing it.Other causes-of infection of Kidneys/ Ureter/Bladder/ Urethra, is a must.
Do's suggested-
Consult Surgeon and Physician to rule out surgical and medical causes.
If need be consult Nephrologist /and or Urologist.
Urine Analysis/ Urine Culture for routine and AFB organisms and treat it with antibiotics and urinary stabilizers like pyridium / and alkalisation of Urine with Citralka.
Rule out Phimosis and or
meatal urethral stenosis.
Other medical causes need to be ruled out,before start of any further treatment.
