What Could Cause Discomfort During Urination And Irritated Urethra?

default
Posted on Tue, 7 May 2024
Question: I had a recent one night stand with a stranger. I know have an irritated urethra and slight discomfort when I pee. I tested at 7 days after exposure for chlamydia and gonorrhea. They were both negative. Should I test again? I figured if there were symptoms the infection would show. Is that correct?

Brief Answer:
Test urine

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Yes, the reports would have come positive if the symptoms were due to those infections. I would suggest you to get a urine microscopy done to rule out urinary tract infection.

Hope I answered your query. Wish you good health.
