Hello everyone,
I am a 51 year old male. I had a flexi cystoscopy done 3 months ago, just to find out why I have been experiencing urinary urgency and frequency. ( No major problems detected ) Urologist said my urinary issue is probably due to tight pelvic floor muscles and anxiety/ stress.
Up until today, I am still experiencing mild discomfort/ dull ache in the penis ( Mainly around the tip and sometimes on the shaft) Especially after urinating and ejaculating.
Sometimes the discomfort will disappear for days or weeks ( I was trouble free for a month in January) but it then returned, which is very frustrating.
UTI and STD tests came back negative. The urologist didn’t seem too concerned, saying that my lingering soreness could be due to my meatus being 1mm smaller than normal, hence why I am still experiencing it. He doesn’t believe I have a stricture. My regular GP also doesn’t believe that I have anything to worry about, since I can still empty my bladder, my urine stream is fine, and I am not experiencing any sharp pains or bleeding etc. GP told me to just take alkalineser drinks if I feel any discomfort.
I would like to know if anyone here has experienced the same problems, months after undergoing a cystoscopy. I don’t think i have any major problems, but as I suffer from anxiety ( Including health anxiety) the current discomfort does stress me out at times.
