I Have a Terrible Disease
Dear Obaa Yaa,
I wrote sometime in 2024 to share a strange ordeal I have been going through. I contracted a sexually transmitted disease during my period of national service.
Initially, I thought it was a normal illness, so I visited a nearby hospital for treatment. However, I continue to experience persistent itching and pain in my manhood.
As the situation worsened, I became worried and wrote to you. You advised me to see a specialist. The doctor did his best, but the condition still persists. I have also undergone several laboratory tests, all of which show that there is nothing medically wrong with me.
Some doctors and pharmacists I have consulted have suggested that the problem could be psychological. There is a sore at the tip of my male organ, and it causes me great distress.
I feel pain when urinating, followed by sharp pains in my waist. At the moment, I am not only suffering physically but also psychologically. I cannot concentrate on my work for even five minutes.
Could this be spiritual?
Mawuli, Keta
Dear Mawuli,
There is still hope for your situation. I strongly advise you to see a qualified urologist at the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital for further assessment and treatment.
I cannot say for certain whether your condition is spiritual or not. However, do not lose faith. Continue praying to God, because your healing may come when you least expect it.
Stay strong.
Obaa Yaa
