When Male Organ Pain Is Due to Urethral Stricture
by John Dugan OwnerIs there any relief quite like that of unzipping and letting forth
a strong stream of urine after holding it in for a lengthy period of time? And
yet, sometimes what should be a feeling of relief is ruined by accompanying
male organ pain while urinating. With male organ health a major concern for
men, they definitely want to know what is causing unwanted male organ pain like
that. Sometimes when they consult a doctor about it, they might be told that
they are experiencing urethral stricture. But just what does that mean?
About urethral stricture
As many already know, the urethra refers to the tube inside the
manhood through which urine flows when a man is urinating. (Male seed also
exits the body through the urethra during typical seed release.) A stricture is
an abnormal narrowing of an opening. So when a man has a urethral stricture, it
means that for some reason the urethra has narrowed. It may be the narrowing itself
that causes the male organ pain, but it also may be the cause of the narrowing
that is to blame. Typically, a urethral stricture occurs when there is
inflammation in the urethra or when scar tissue is present in the urethra.
In addition to male organ pain while urinating, there may be other
symptoms that could be associated with a urethral stricture. For example, there
may be less urine emptying than usual, or a man may experience some “spraying”
while urinating (which can result in a mess on and around the toilet or urinal,
as well as on his own clothing). It may be difficult to empty the bladder
completely, which means that a person may also find he needs to urinate more
frequently. And a stricture increases the chances of developing a urinary tract
infection (UTI).
Causes
But what brings about the urethral stricture in the first place?
Often, doctors don’t know the cause, although they may make educated guesses.
Where scar tissue is concerned, it often is due to some trauma to
the member. For example, if the manhood is fractured, scar tissue may develop
in the urethra. Similarly, if the organ receives a sharp blow, as from a
hard-hit baseball, it can occur. Men who are in the hospital and require the
insertion of a urinary catheter often find that it leaves scar tissue. And some
men who enjoy sounding – the insertion of rods or other objects into the
urethra for sensual pleasure – can inadvertently (and easily) create trauma
while inserting and/or removing objects.
Other times, urethral stricture may result from a medical
procedure in the member, an enlarged prostate, radiation therapy, or a social
disease.
Although urethral strictures most often are found in men, it is
possible for a woman to get one as well.
Treatment
In some cases, treatment may not be necessary, as the urethral
stricture may resolve on its own. In other instances, antibiotics or other
medications may be used to treat infections and inflammation responsible for
the narrowing. A doctor may also opt to use an instrument known as a dilator to
widen the urethra.
In more severe cases, a doctor may need to perform surgery or, in
even more severe cases, reroute the urinary tract so that urine exits the body
through an opening created in the abdomen. Most cases, however, do not require
such extreme treatments.
Male organ pain from a urethral stricture may be less noticeable
if the member is in good general health; such a goal can be aided by regular
application of a first-rate male organ health oil (health professionals
recommend Man 1 Man Oil, which
is clinically proven mild and safe for skin). If the manhood skin is
flexible and pliable, there may be less likelihood of pain, so utilizing an oil
with a combination of moisturizers, such as shea butter and vitamin E, is
recommended. In addition, an oil with vitamin C is a good idea, as that vitamin
is a component of collagen, a tissue in the body that gives skin its tone and
elasticity.
