What causes male penis pain?

The structure of human organs is very complex. In real life, we will encounter various body organ diseases. Male reproductive organ disease is just one type of body disease. Male reproductive organ disease is very painful and will bring a lot of inconvenience to patients, seriously affecting their normal life and work. Let us understand what causes penile pain.

Causes of genital pain include:

1. Non-gonococcal urethritis: Non-gonococcal urethritis is a urethral infection caused by ureaplasma, Chlamydia trachomatis and Trichomonas.

2. Herpes virus infection: Some viruses often cause pain after invading the penis, and genital herpes is a common one. After infection, the genital area will experience burning, itching, and pain.

3. Prostatitis: Prostate inflammation often causes genital pain.

Pathological analysis of balanitis: It refers to inflammation of the inner plate of the foreskin and the glans penis. A lipid substance secreted by the normal foreskin can accumulate into smegma when the foreskin is too long or phimosis occurs, which can irritate the foreskin and glans penis and cause balanitis.

Balanitis is more common in cases of excessive foreskin and a history of unclean sexual intercourse. The foreskin and glans of the penis are slightly flushed, and there may be white cheese-like patches on the inner plate of the foreskin and the glans coronal sulcus. There may be needle-sized light red papules on the glans, and there may be frequent urination and painful urination. On the glans and foreskin, erythema can be seen, which gradually expands and becomes ring-shaped, and can form a superficial ulcer surface.

If the pain is just below the penis, it is the urethra, which usually occurs when the urethra is injured! Be alert to the common causes, such as urethritis, urinary tract infection, and mechanical damage caused by improper masturbation! If it is the glans penis, consider balanitis, or other inflammation caused by not paying attention to hygiene. If it is the penis itself! It is usually caused by long-term erection. The penis is composed of two penile corpora cavernosa and one urethral corpora cavernosa. The penile corpora cavernosa is wrapped by a layer of connective tissue called "white membrane". Long-term erection can cause strain. If it is at the root, it is generally seen in prostate lesions! If it is on both sides of the penis shaft, consider it as a lesion in the inguinal groove.

Symptoms of chronic prostatitis:

(1) Urinary discomfort: Bladder irritation symptoms may occur, such as frequent urination, burning sensation in the urethra during urination, and pain radiating to the glans penis. In the early morning, there may be mucus and other secretions at the urethra, and there may also be a feeling of difficulty in urination.

(2) Local symptoms: Distension and discomfort in the posterior urethra, perineum and anus, which is aggravated by squatting, defecation and sitting on a chair for a long time.

(3) Radiating pain: The pain of chronic prostatitis is not limited to the urethra and perineum, but also radiates to the surrounding areas, with lower back pain being the most common.

The above article describes in detail what causes penile pain. Penile pain should be taken seriously. If any adverse condition is found, go to a regular hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible. Penile pain patients should not eat too much spicy food in their diet. Spicy food will stimulate the condition and make it worse. Patients should stay in bed more and should not overwork.
