He has had some frequency of urination and purulent penile discharge, but no fever. He admits to being sexually active, with his new girlfriend of two weeks. He has tried Tylenol and ibuprofen at home and nothing helps. As you enter the treatment room, the patient appears anxious and uncomfortable.
