Patient's question:
I came to my place from my girlfriend's house (we haven't seen each other in half a year). We had sexual intercourse a few times. After that, she went back home. About a week ago, I noticed some pain at the base of my penis while urinating, and it has been a week now. Besides this, I have no other discomfort. I haven't asked about her physical condition, but during intercourse, I felt a strange odor down there, which might be possible vaginitis or something else. Please ask the experts, what illness is this, what medicine should I take, and what should I pay attention to in my diet?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that you undergo a urinalysis to check for the possibility of a urinary tract infection, or consider a urine bacterial culture. Additionally, if you are male, be mindful of the possibility of prostatitis as well. Make sure to drink plenty of water, eat less spicy food and alcohol. Try taking azithromycin orally or intravenous ceftriaxone. Avoid overly rough sexual activity or excessive frequency of sexual intercourse. Give up masturbation.
