What Causes Swelling And Burning Sensation At The Opening Of Penis?

I GOT SOAP IN UP IN THE OPENING OF MY PENIS. THE OPENING IS SWOLLEN A
BIT AND STILL BURNS WHEN I URINATE. AFTER A COUPLE OF DAYS, I THOUGHT
IT COULD BE A BLADDER INFECTION AND HAVE BEEN DRINKING CRANBERRY
JUICE. ANY HELP WITH THIS WOULD BE APPRECIATED.

Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
There can be muliple possibilities

- First there can be a STD or sexual transmitted infection like gonnorhea. Pain & burning sensation are common. Swelling also ncan be there.
- Second possibility is of Fungal infection. Fungal infection can cause itching sensation & burning of tip of penis too.
- There may be Urinary tract infection too
- you might have got Balan prostitis. Due foreskin there is collection of smegma and if not cleaning properly you may get this infection. This is common in non- circumcised males.

Refer to a Urologist for consultation

Hoping your query is solved
