I'm feeling a burning sensation at the tip of my penis, especially when I pee. I've been having unprotected sex, and I'm getting really worried. Could it be an infection or something else serious? What should I do next?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Burning sensation in the penis tip area, mostly while urinating, can be a sign of a urinary tract infection or a sexually transmitted infection. Since you are sexually active and engaging in unprotected intercourse, it is important to get tested for STIs. I recommend you take an antibiotic like Azithromycin 1g as a single dose and Ceftriaxone 250mg intramuscularly. Additionally, drink plenty of water to help flush out any infection. It is also important to practice safe sex to prevent future infections.

I've been masturbating every day for the past three years and I'm wondering if this might cause any sexual issues. Can you help me understand if there are any risks? And how can I go about reducing or stopping this habit?
Daily masturbation for 3 years can lead to issues like desensitization, erectile dysfunction, or premature ejaculation, but it's not a guarantee; to stop or reduce masturbation, try techniques like mindfulness, meditation, exercise, or hobbies to redirect your energy, and consider seeking professional help from a therapist or counselor if needed.
