Why do I have a tingling sensation right after I pee?

Doctor's Answer

Hi, the symptoms that you have described are very typical of a UTI (urinary tract infection).

Commonly, UTIs caused:

1. Spots of blood in your urine

2. Frequent urge to pass urine

3. Tingling or burning sensation when you pee

Your GP can do a simple urine test to determine if it is indeed a UTI. He can also rule out other potential causes of your symptoms, such as STDs, eg. gonorrhoea and chlamydia.

UTIs are easily treated with a course of antibiotics, and do not go away by themselves, so it's prudent to pay a visit to the doctor soon to get checked out and treated.
