Stinging in urethra!

tonym

Hi guys.
I am worried.
Yesterday I was sitting on the toilet and somehow had a semi-boner and my glans came in contact with the toilet ring! Not the one you sit on but the other one. (see pic)

After that I directly washed the penor with soap but today I have been experiencing a stinging in the penor at different times. Now I am worried that bacteria might have gotten in the urethra.
I had an infection of the urethra in 2008. No idea how I got this. The doc took a swap and found bacteria which are usually in the colon!
I had to take nasty antibiotics which I later found out can ruin your ligaments! Gyrase inhibitors. These antibiotics are said to have ruined lifes.
I dont want to take any of this crap again but if the stinging doesnt go away then I will have to see a doc. :frowning:

Toilets are actually quite clean.I have no idea how gyrase inhibitors would ruin your ligaments.

You probably got soap inside the urthra.. That will cause it to sting.

Hello,

I do not know if it's soap. I mean if it was soap then it should sting right away and not a day later. On Wednesday morning it stinged pretty bad and also on Thursday but today there was hardly any stinging at all.
I guess I wont go to a urologist now and get a swab cause swabs suck and I also dont want to take antibiotics.

Could stinging in the urethra also be caused by back problems?

As for gyrase inhibitors and joint problems...
I don't know what they do but I read that people who took them over an extended period got permanent joints damage and are now screwed for life. I remember that some of the side effects of this antibiotic mentioned tearing your achilles tendon! This shows that this stuff is nasty.
