Hi, a blood test picks up antibodies from a prior infection that could have been there years back. Urine or swab picks up current infections. If you dont have a white/gray puss discharge you can pretty much rule chlayndia as the cause of any stymptoms.
Who said its chlamydia and you irritation is most likley from your constant checking and pulling.
As mentioned blood tests only confirm antibodies so youve had it before but only a urine test would confirm a recent infection.
the tip is not a place for the infection but inside. im not sure whats causing it other than an injury type.
You can have a scope inserted to see if there any injury.
So its been 6 months now and my urologist cant find anything wrong after multiple testing and swabs. I was diagnosed with anxiety 2 years ago but that has nothing to do with the physical pain I'm going through. It still burns and feels like needles are on the inside of my urethra at the tip. ITs so annoying and is really affecting my work and personal life. Ive tried to keep track of when I comes and goes but its mostly there all the time. I only have relief when I sleep. Once I wake up its there and all day. I don't have any bumps or cracks, just burning. please someone with the same situation help find out what it could possibly be. I feel my docs think im crazy but I know I feel pain.
UPDATE: Finally did the cystoscopy(which is not all that bad) and Doc said all clear. It was really a relief and made my anxiety really go away. It was all the worrying day and night that it could be something worse than Chlamydia. I was so sure it was something else. Our mind can really play tricks on us and can make you feel certain ways. I thought forsure it was herpes, but herpes doesn't last that long and tests were negative. My advice would be to not overthink and do not read these blogs so much, it can really get to your head!! Live your life and let God guide you!
