Tip of penis tingle

I have had sinus upper respiratory infection for three days now. Today I started experiencing a tingling sensation in urethra at tip of penis. I have been urinating more than usual the past couple days and have no pain when I urinate. Starts tingling after urination until I go again. I am not having any discharge or anything from penis. Just uncomfortable.

This sounds more like viral infection, and one candidate that has been linked with upper respiratory tract infection and urethritis is adenovirus. But the good news is that the symptoms should clear in about 7 days. Where that fails to happen you need to see your pcp or urologist. for full workup.

This is likely related to your respiratory infection. Should get better on its own. If not, see your doctor.

Urgent care or primary doc to check urinalysis and an exam.

Believe it or not there are number of urethritis is that are caused by viruses with a one-day history and not remarkably intense symptoms it's doubtful could be bacterial but If it doesn't clear up then you should go have a checked check by your doctor

Adenoviral urethritis. Should get better on its own. If not, I would see your doctor to make sure you don't have a sexually transmitted disease or urinary tract infection.

Be sure you are drinking plenty of water. Also drink 4 oz of unsweetened cranberry juice mixed with grape juice or water 4 times daily. Be sure you are taking a probiotic like acidophpilus, which can help with infections and your immune system. If you develop low back pain see your doctor.
It sounds like you have a urinary tract infection or a case of non-infectious urethritis. (inflammation of the urethra)

STD's can also give these symptoms. You need an exam and a urine check to determine the cause and treatment. Best of luck!
