Question : Hi it's a bit embarrassing but me and my missus got a carpet of a friend and until then never had flees but last night I had one on my penis and now I'm getting the feeling like I need a wee what can I do about it
Brief Answer:
It does not sound like there is an infection
Detailed Answer:
Hi there
Are you sure it was a flee? and did it actually bite you? Is there a bump or a lesion where the flee bit you? Do you have a burning sensation when you Urinary?
It sounds like you might be having a psycho-somatic reaction in which you feel like there is something wrong when there is actually nothing going on - your mind is tricking your body to believe there is something wrong when there is actually nothing wrong. It is a common reaction to anxiety and stress. It will go away in a few days. I would not be concerned if I were you - unless you actually got bit by a flee and have a bump with redness and pain. A fleee bit should not result in making you urinary more or burning with urination.
The feeling of needing to urinate or frequent urination is usually a sign of infection such as a sexually transmitted infection or a urinary tract infection. However, there is usually burning with urination and hesitancy when you go to urinate.
