An otherwise healthy 24-year-old male has presented at your office with recent symptoms of a burning
pain when urinating. The subject has recently decided to begin bodybuilding as a way to lose some of
the weight he gained eating a poor diet in college. The subject weight trains 6 days each week, a
drastic change from his previous exercise habit of a 1-hour jog or run once a week. His intense weight
training requires careful monitoring of food and liquid intake. The subject describes his hew diet as
healthy, with a large focus on lean chicken breast, hard-boiled eggs, and beans. He is careful not to
overeat. He also says that he closely monitors his water intake and forces himself to drink the
recommended eight glasses of water each day, no more and no less.
