What causes pain and stinging sensation in the penis?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have pain on top of the penis. On the left side of the glans penis, there is a stinging sensation when rubbed against (example boxers). Not sure if it is a nerve issue. Currently taking Clotrimazole Betamethasone for it. I have done blood and urine test.

Kindly advise.

Thank you.
