It hurts my husband to pee and his culture is negative for a UTI? what's going on?

Question

he's been on meds for 4 days and no response

Answer 1

Could be an enlarged prostate, bladder problem, or bladder stones.

He needs to see a UROLOGIST -- a doctor that specializes in urinary tract problems (including sexual problems)

The next step is probably a cystoscope. The doctor will insert a small tube through the p***s into the bladder.  They can then see inside the urinary system (including the prostate) with a camera.

Sounds awful, but since they use an anesthetic, its not so bad.  Just embarrassing if the nurse is female . . . . .

Answer 2

maybe he should ask his doctor instead .

Answer 3

His urologist will probably do a cystoscopy next to check out the urethra and bladder. It`s possible to have a small kidney stone lodged in the urine passageway. Only a Dr. can diagnose the problem.
