painful erections & post void drip

Post by jerseyguy »

Is painful erection common with this ailment?. I do not have any pain while ejaculating, however I get shooting pain along the base of the penis when I get an erection. It seems as if it is pulling on the testes. The epicentre of the pain seems to be at the base of the penis. This pain is more when the erection does not fulfill into an ejaculation.
Do people also feel as if there is residual urine in the urethra after voiding?. Couple of drops remain even after vioding, seems like that is because of the spasmed muscles. All these symptomes seem to be linked to tight muscles. I just started PT sessions, no effect so far after 1 session of internal work. I have also started doing Kegels, once a day for 5 sec. Resting tone of muscles on the biofeedback instrument =5mV,came down to 12mV after few Kegels.
34 yr consultant, suffering from intermittently past 2 yrs. Tried various prostate supplements, symptoms relieved by ejaculation.
Symptoms- pain at tip and base of penis, urge to urinate (can hold off for hrs), dribbling at end of urination

Yes, that's very common. I get it all the time, especially at night after I've woken up after a long dream. As far as the voiding issue, this has been posted dozens, if not hundreds of times before. It's common too - do some searches and you'll find plenty of explanations for the condition.
