hi there
not worried about getting erections ... in fact to exercise it i just gave myself one a few minutes ago (did not masturbate though)
i was given antibiotics as the doctor said it sounded like prostatitis
however my urethra is still painful all the times and makes it hurt to get an erection ... the pain has not gone away for several weeks with no masturbation
it was bearable as the pain went away after a week but it just doesn't stop
Hi there!
Well, without a detailed clinical evaluation it would be difficult to comment specifically on the situation or determine the cause of your symptoms. Possibilities that may need to be considered include GU infections, inflammations, hormonal/ endocrine abnormalities, psychological stress, performance anxiety, depression, neurogenic disorders body image issues, medications, alcohol, smoking, drugs/medications, hormonal imbalance, radiation therapy, kidney failure, metabolic disorders, multiple sclerosis, hypertension, diabetes, prostatitis, urethritis etc. just to name a few. Anxiety and stress play an important in the development of erectile dysfunction; and is the most common possible cause. At a primary level, I would suggest being a bit relaxed and working on the psychological factors. You could also see a psychotherapist/ behavioral therapist for the same. It might also be beneficial to get rid of factors like smoking/ alcohol/ drugs, if involved. In case this doesn’t work, or you have difficulty controlling anxiety; I would suggest seeing a urologist for an evaluation of the above mentioned causes and appropriate specific treatment.
Hope this helps.
Take care!
