Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am having some internal pain on the penis and it is a bit stronger when I have erection. No bruises, or pus during urinating. I am a 34 year old male, with a height of 5'6" feet and weight of 176.37 pounds.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern for your symptoms. Pain during erection can be due to Infection. The common cause is urinary tract infection and the other cause is sexually transmitted infection. Balanitis occurs due to inflammation of gland penis and tip of your penis can be due to allergy of infection. Prostatitis occurs due to inflammation of prostate gland due to infection or injury or inflammation. Urethritis occurs due to inflammation or infection of urethra. Renal calculi can cause painful erection and Peyronie's disease occur due to scar tissue inside the penis causing painful erection and Neuropathy due to diabetes. Kindly share more details regarding above information and we can work on your treatment.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
