Two days back I had frequent urination every half an hour. After taking metronidazole for 2 days it is improving but earlier I had some bladder pain with inflammation. My urine test report is normal but I did not do a urine culture test. Inside my penis there is a burning sensation. Is any problem occurring?

Burning and frequent urination can suggest urethritis or prostatitis, even with a normal urine report. Since it improved with metronidazole, the infection is likely. However, a urine culture is essential to rule out resistant infection.

Hi, I am Vimal. I had premarital sex a year ago. I took all the tests, and all were negative. However, I still have lower abdominal pain and penile pain while urinating. I also have white discharge from my penis. I feel I may be affected with an STD. Please check my report and provide clear guidance? Thank you.

I have 30 to 40 pus cells and 20 to 25 epithelial cells per hpf in my urine report. I am also experiencing nausea, occasional burning sensation during urination, and mild pain in the lower abdomen and sometimes on both sides of the flank. I am currently taking Nitrobact 100. I have attached my report for your reference.
