This could be a sign of post-void dribbling, urinary retention, or urethritis. In a 17-year-old male, common causes include:
Infection (UTI, prostatitis, or urethritis — often associated with burning, discharge)
Pelvic floor dysfunction
Anxiety or incomplete relaxation while voiding
Recommendations:
Encourage adequate hydration.
Rule out UTI with a urine routine and culture.
If symptoms persist or worsen, consider pelvic ultrasound (post-void residual volume) and urology referral.
Avoid self-medication.
