What Causes Burning Sensation In The Penis Head?

I had unprotected sex over two months ago, within the past few days ive developed a stinging/burning sensation at the tip of my penis with a clear discharge. The stinging isn t always there. Is it possible this could be an STI or is it more likely something else?

Hi,

Most probably if it does not go away and it came a few weeks after the intercourse then it may be an STD. The best thing to do is get a culture swab from the penile tip and get it tested.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Manuel C See IV,
