Penis & Testicle Concerns / Question
Published: April 30, 2002
Dear TeenHealthFX,
I am a masturbator, but after I masturbate I have an urge to pee about 10 minutes later after I pee my head of the penis is burning. This never happens except after I masturbate what is wrong.?

Dear Burning Head,
When masturbating you may cause irritation to your urethra (the tube and opening in your penis that ejaculates and urine comes out of - this can cause burning when you pee. Another possibility is that you may be allergic to whatever lubricant you are using when you masturbate. Try using a lotion that is hypoallergenic and see if this helps.
If you continue to have problems then you really need to consult with a doctor. Having a doctor examine you is the only way to get a definitive answer as to what is going on.? If you would like to meet with a doctor from the Adolescent/Young Adult Center For Health in Morristown, New Jersey you can call 973.971.6475 for an appointment.
