Brief Answer:
Inflammation....

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

It means inflammation of either glans secondary to infection / irritant / other factors or the urethra. The causes depend on the duration of symptoms - acute / chronic.

Most acute causes are benign and are amenable to treatment. Chronic condition however will need detailed evaluation.

Hope this information suffices. If you wish to learn more, I would like you to provide me a detailed account of the problem.

Regards
