A member asked:

Why do i get a stinging burning pain at the tip of my penis after i masturbate ? it goes away after i urinate

Dr. Tarek Naguib answered

Specializes in Nephrology and Dialysis

Probably friction: The penile skin is sensitive especially the area inside the opening that is not skin but is a transitional mucus membrane (ie, very sensitive form of skin). Friction by itself could cause this then it gets soothed by urine flow. If the burning ever lasts, it may suggest infection.
