hello, I have not been sexually active for months and I have been recently masturbating at least every day for the past 2 weeks. Today I noticed painful urination and some blood in my urine. Is masturbation related? I am also in another country and the food is different from that in the U.S.
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. Pain during urination and Hematuria are signs of urinary tract infections and not due to Masturbation. My advice is to visit a Urologist /Physician and let him test your urine and blood. He will give you antibiotics like Norfloxacin for 5 days and bladder muscle relaxants like favorite to reduce the pain. Make sure to Chat Doctor.  And this UTI is not food related. Hope this discussion will be helpful to you. Thank you.
