I tried out urethral sounding last night and accidently poked my urethra. i have some minor pain and stinging today. the object was slightly pointy and not sanitized, but there was no blood. how do i know if i need to go to the dr? i'm embarassed?

Is it painful to urinate? Is there any blood in your urine? Are you having difficulty urinating? If any of these are true, the you should be checked by a doctor to be certain the injury is not serious. If none of these are true, it is likely a minor injury that will heal on its own. If it begins to swell, you should see a doctor. No need to be embarrassed-a urologist may be needed. Good luck!

If you have blood, burning in urine , fever pl see a Urologist 0r go to the urgent/emergency center. If not- drink plenty of water and the injury will gradually heal. Inserting objects in ANY body cavity is wrong and hazardous pl. refrain from it in the future. Good luck
