Brief Answer: Do not be worried... Detailed Answer: Hello Urinary tract infection is usually associated with pain and lack of sexual arousal. This may cause the penis to remain small. However this should not persist for more than two or three days after recovering from infection. Let me know if you have any other doubts. Thank you
