I have had an 8g PA for about 2 months now and so far it has been fairly pain free and all. Yesterday I noticed when I was sleeping that there was some pain at the area of my urethra that the piercing exits out of when I laid on my stomach. I didnt think too much about it until later in the day when I went to take a piss and it was like i was pissing razorblades. Fast forward to this morning the pain when urinating is still there although it has been a bit more bearable but there was a tiny bit of discharge from the tip of my penis which conerns me. I cleaned the piercing/area with a mild soap and I have been doing some saline soaks here and there throughout the morning but the pain is still present and going to the bathroom still has me swearing and cringing. I was just wondering what the possible issues could be and what the best route would be to take as far as treatment.

Unless you’re dealing with some sort of sexually transmitted disease, it sounds to me like you irritated (maybe even tore) your piercing and/orurethra. You will know better than anyone if you’ve been doing anything recently that might have contributed to that. I would suggest seeing how it is in another day or so. If there isn’t any improvement, or the situation gets worse, a trip the doctor would be in order, I’d say.
