What Causes Yellow Penile Discharge?

I have penis discharge. yellowish and clear at times.I've been tested for chlamydia and gonorrhea and the results came back negative.I was on doxycycline for 14 days, but discharge is still there. Do I need to take more? Why is the discharge still there? No itching no burning, no sores.

Hello
Thanks for query .The yellowish penile discharge could be due to inflammation of Urethra .

It is likely that the organisms may not be sensitive to Doxicycline hence there is no satisfactory results even after taking Doxicycline for two weeks

Get swab test and culture of a discharge done to trace out the organisms causing this infection and antibiotics to which they are sensitive to .

Take Erythromycin twice daily and switch on to appropriate antibiotic as per culture report .
