A : A urinary tract infection (UTI) needs to be ruled out. A visit with your primary care provider will likely include an exam and testing. A urine sample will be sent for analysis and culture. On the other hand and allergic cause should also be considered. Are you using any new soaps or lotions on your penis? In the meantime you can try Benadryl (diphenhydramine) and monitor for relief prior to visiting your doctor. Good luck.

Likely irritant: This is most likely an irritant from soaps/shampoos/lotions. Also possibly from masturbation. Not likely to be a urinary tract infection, but is possible, especially if you are not circumcised. Please see your doctor to be properly diagnosed and treated.
