Hello Stephen,
Anytime there is pain in the penis, you need to see a doctor to make sure there isn't something seriously wrong. Particularly when urinating. Online sites are great resources for information to be able to ask all the right questions when it's time to see your doctor, but they can not take the place of your doctor's sound medical advice.
You can read more about penis pain here in the symptoms database. Common causes of pain in the penis can be any of the following:
Common Causes
Injury (such as that due to too much manipulation)
Bites, either human or insect
Pimples
Genital herpes
Inflammation of the prostate gland (prostatitis)
Syphilis
Nonspecific urethritis caused by chlamydia or gonorrhea
Infection under the foreskin of uncircumcised men (balanitis)
Reiter syndrome
Priapism (persistent erection that does not go away)
Peyronie's disease
Cancer of the penis
Infected penile prosthesis
Sickle cell anemia
I hope this helps. Please take care and stay in touch! Let us know how you are doing!
Take care,
Vicki M
