Top 5 Non-PTI Causes of Painful Urination in Men, and How to Fix Them
by John Dugan OwnerMen like to pee. Sometimes there is something so satisfying about
a prolonged, robust urination for all to hear. However, it becomes a lot less
satisfying and, instead, scary, when a man experiences pain during urination.
Having a fire-breathing member is not the fun, comic-worthy asset it might
appear to be. A burning pee is quite uncomfortable and can sometimes be a cause
for concern. It’s not always caused by a partner-transmitted infection (PTI).
Let’s talk about some non-PTI causes of painful urination in men and how to
make it all better.
Painful Urination
Cause #1: Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)
No, they aren’t just for the
ladies! If you have a urinary tract, it can get infected. In fact, UTIs are the
most common cause of painful urination in men. UTIs happen when bacteria get
caught up anywhere in the urinary tract. Other symptoms of a UTI include cloudy
or blood-tinged urine, fever, and inexplicable pain in the back and side.
Usually, a UTI can be banished with antibiotics in just a few days.
Painful Urination
Cause #2: Allergic Reaction
Allergic reactions can cause
havoc in a lot of ways, and pain during urination is one of them. Anything new
that the member comes into contact with can cause a reaction. This includes
things like latex protection, laundry detergent, body wash, or even something a
partner uses or wears in a place where your member comes into contact with it.
New medications can also cause allergic reactions. Although allergic reactions
don’t always seem like a big deal, sometimes it’s best to head to the doctor
just in case to rule other things out. Otherwise, an antihistamine and a
thorough cleansing of the area should help.
Painful Urination
Cause #3: Urethritis
Urethritis is the
inflammation of the urethra (the urethra is the tube that carries the urine out
of the body) caused by bacteria. Antibiotics are used for treatment.
Painful Urination
Cause #4: Kidney Stones
Hailing from the kidney, these special, and some say very pretty,
stones are a buildup of calcium or uric acid. When the kidney stones get lodged
in the place where urine meets the bladder, it causes pain during urination.
Generally, a man will have to urinate the kidney stone out. If he’s working
with more boulders than pebbles, a doctor will likely need to use shock wave
lithotripsy to crack them into smaller pieces, which will still need to be
passed the old-fashioned way. Here’s the thing, peeing them out is going to be
something beyond painful, so prepare yourself now. Don’t worry, lots of men
before you have done it and lived to tell the tale.
Painful Urination in
Men Cause #5: Bladder Pain Syndrome (BPS)
A less common cause of pain
during urination is something called BPS, which is a chronic bladder issue.
When this is the case, a man will feel both pressure and pain at the same time.
It usually presents with lower urinary tract infection symptoms, which last 6
weeks or longer without a known cause. Symptoms and length of symptoms range
with BPS. If you have IBS, fibromyalgia, or other chronic pain issues, you are
more likely to have BPS.
Treating Painful
Urination in Men
The first
step of treatment is to get a proper diagnosis. Get in with your doctor as soon
as possible or head to a clinic if your doc is full. After getting an
appointment, start drinking as much water as you can. The water dilutes the
urine and will bring down any pain you’re experiencing. You can also take some
ibuprofen to help with the discomfort. It’s also important to properly clean
the member before, during, and after treatment to reduce inflammation. Be sure
to follow up a thorough cleansing and rinsing with a specially formulated male
organ health oil (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil, which has been clinically
proven safe and mild for skin). These special lotions are made expressly
for delicate male organ skin and include nutrients that guard against bacteria
and improve skin tone and elasticity, warding off the little cuts that dry skin
can cause.
Once you
have a diagnosis, follow your doctor’s treatment plan to the letter and be sure
to keep up on your male organ health regimen to keep issues away in the future.
