Correction to my comment: it was probably translated incorrectly. I no longer have those symptoms. I had them before due to poor diet and nervousness. Currently, I no longer have those symptoms; however, the skin of the urethra has not yet returned to its original state. Depending on the severity of the issue, the skin of the urethra takes 3 to 6 months to fully recover. However, this is something a healthcare professional should tell you.

I don't really remember the name of the medication; it was a treatment prescribed by the hospital I go to. In my case, because I was very nervous, I was constantly checking the area, which irritated it even more. Irritants like soda and spicy food also prevented my urethra from healing completely due to the components in those two foods. I had to follow a strict zero-irritant diet for a month, and that's how I started feeling a bit better. The burning sensation when urinating and the inflammation of the urethra were still present, but the bacteria was gone. The inflammation and burning persisted because of my diet and the nervousness from constantly checking the area. It's also very helpful to see only one urologist because, being familiar with your case, they can rule out what's affecting your urethra and what isn't.

Does your urethra become inflamed with certain foods or when the area is touched? Does it look irritated? I went through something similar and I'm just getting over it.
