why does it burn when i pee male

A burning sensation when urinating in males is commonly caused by several conditions including urinary tract infections (UTIs), sexually transmitted infections (STIs), inflammation of the prostate gland (prostatitis), or irritation of the urethra. Other possible causes may include kidney stones, irritation from personal care products, dehydration, or side effects from certain medications. If the burning is accompanied by other symptoms like discharge, blood in urine, or persistent pain, it is important to see a healthcare provider for evaluation and appropriate treatment. Staying well- hydrated and avoiding irritants can help relieve mild symptoms, but persistent or severe burning should be medically assessed.
