Sore Penis After Sex

Have you ever experienced soreness in your penis after sex and you wonder why you have to experience such pain after all the coital sweetness? You are not alone in this.

 

Experts say that a sore penis after sex is usually nothing to worry about except you are experiencing other unusual symptoms. If this happens, there is a need to see your healthcare provider without delay.

What causes sore penis after sex?

According to studies, there are several factors that can cause sore penis after sex and we shall be examining some of these factors one after the other. 

Friction during sex

According to research, one of the most common causes is friction during intercourse, especially when lubrication is insufficient, irritating the penile skin. When there isn’t enough lubrication, the skin on the penis can become irritated and sore. This is especially common if the woman isn’t fully aroused or if the man is using a condom that’s too tight. Another cause of friction is when the sex is too vigorous. When the penis is thrust too hard or too fast, it can cause irritation and pain. It’s important to use enough lubrication and to go at a pace that’s comfortable for both partners.

Infections 

Studies have shown that infections, such as yeast infections or sexually transmitted infections (STIs) like gonorrhea, can cause penile soreness. Yeast infections can be caused by an overgrowth of yeast in the body. They can cause a rash, itching, and burning. STDs, such as herpes or gonorrhea, can also cause a sore penis. Other symptoms of an STD may include discharge, itching, and pain during urination. If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s important to see a doctor as soon as possible.

Medications

Research has shown that certain medications, like blood pressure medications or antidepressants, can cause a decrease in blood flow to the penis, potentially causing soreness or erectile dysfunction, If you are taking any medications and experiencing a sore penis, you should talk to your doctor about whether the medication is causing the problem.

Delayed ejaculation

According to health sources, delayed ejaculation can cause a sore penis due to pressure buildup. Delayed ejaculation, also known as retarded ejaculation, is a condition that can cause a sore penis after sex. It is when it takes a long time for a man to reach orgasm and ejaculate. When this happens, it can cause a buildup of pressure in the penis, which can lead to pain. It can also cause frustration and embarrassment. If you’re experiencing delayed ejaculation, there are treatments available that can help.

Peyronie’s disease

Studies have shown that Peyronie’s disease can cause soreness after sex. Peyronie’s disease is a penis disorder that can cause a sore penis after sex. It is a condition that causes the penis to become curved or bent when erect. The curvature of the penis can make it difficult to have sex, and it can also cause pain after sex. In some cases, the curvature of the penis can be severe enough to prevent sexual intercourse altogether. If you think you may have Peyronie’s disease, it’s important to see a doctor. There are treatments available that can help.

Post-orgasmic illness syndrome

POIS is a condition that causes a variety of symptoms, including a sore penis, fatigue, headache, and joint pain, after orgasm. Research has shown that post-orgasmic illness syndrome can cause penile soreness alongside fatigue, headaches, and flu-like symptoms after orgasm. POIS is said to affect about 1% of men, with symptoms lasting hours to days, and treatments can help manage it. The symptoms of POIS typically begin within a few minutes to a few hours after orgasm. In addition to a sore penis, people with POIS may also experience fatigue, headache, cognitive problems, flu-like symptoms, and difficulty breathing. POIS can last for hours or even days after orgasm. The symptoms of POIS can be debilitating, and they can have a negative impact on a person’s quality of life. The exact cause of POIS is not known, but it is thought to be related to an imbalance of certain chemicals in the body. If you’re experiencing POIS, there are treatments available that can help.

Urinary tract infection

It has been shown that a UTI, though less common in men, can cause penile soreness, burning during urination, and pelvic discomfort. A UTI is an infection of the urinary tract, which includes the urethra, bladder, and kidneys. It’s important to treat a UTI as soon as possible, as it can lead to more serious health problems if left untreated.

Prostatitis

Studies have shown that prostatitis can cause penile soreness after sex, often with urinary difficulties. Prostatitis is an inflammation of the prostate gland, which is located just below the bladder in men. The prostate gland produces fluid that helps to protect and nourish sperm. When the prostate gland becomes inflamed, it can cause a variety of symptoms, including pain during or after sex, difficulty urinating, and a frequent need to urinate. Some men with prostatitis may also experience a sore penis. Treatment for prostatitis depends on the cause of the inflammation, but it often involves antibiotics and other medications.

Phimosis

Phimosis is a condition in which the foreskin is too tight to be pulled back over the head of the penis. According to a Cleveland clinic article, phimosis can cause pain during and after sex due to friction of the foreskin against the head of the penis. Phimosis can be treated with a variety of methods, including stretching exercises, steroid creams, or, in severe cases, surgery. Treatment for phimosis can often improve sexual function and reduce pain after sex.

Mondor’s disease

Mondor’s disease can cause a sore penis after sex. It is a condition that causes inflammation of the superficial veins of the penis. Research has shown that this inflammation can cause pain and swelling in the penis, as well as a sore penis. The pain can last for a few days after sex. Mondor’s disease is rare, and it’s not well understood. Treatment usually involves rest, ice, and pain medication. The condition often resolves on its own without any treatment.

Balanitis

According to studies, balanitis can cause soreness, redness, and itching after sex. It is a condition that causes the head of the penis to become inflamed. It is usually caused by an infection or irritation of the skin. Symptoms of balanitis include redness, swelling, and itching of the head of the penis. The pain can last for a few days after sex. Treatment for balanitis often involves antibiotics or antifungal medications, depending on the cause of the condition.
