A couple of days ago, I began to feel some tingling sensation on the tip of my penis. Later in the day, I felt urges to urinate which was stronger during the night. I also had greater amounts of pre-***, which was clear. Yesterday, I began to feel some discomfort in the area directly below the testes and between the legs. I think it is inflammation or swelling, although the pain is not severe. I don’t have any pain in my penis or testes besides the sensation on the tip of my penis. Also, I don’t have any pain when I urinate and my urine is normal. It has only been 3 days that I have felt these symptoms. I am only 23 yrs old and I’m pretty worried. I have an appointment with the doctor in a week for a physical exam although she doesn’t know about this yet. do you think this is prostatitis? Please help.
one question… how much do you masturbate?? that is an issue experienced by many younger men who overwork their prostate gland. you may have some lower abdominal discomfort/pain at times, tingling/itching feeling just inside the urethra at the tip of the penis, a pressure/pain feeling in the area between the scrotum and anus, some minor discomfort upon urinating and/or ejaculating.
my suggestion: don't masturbate at all for a month and see if it gets better. it could be an overworked prostate or an ulcerated urethra. either can heal itself with time and proper fluids. drink water, cranberry juice, and green tea.
hope this helps.
You would have the feeling of needing to urinate especially at night and then not be able to completely evacuate your bladder. you would not feel discomfort during urination. you would not have pain in the penis or testes. I am not sure about the feeling at the tip. 23 is young to have this, but it is possible. you will certainly tell the doctor about this situation.
No, if you had prostatitis you'd feel like you had to pee all the time and only a little bit would come out. It sounds like some sort of a nerve issue like a pinched nerver. Definitely tell your doctor about it next week.
