4 main symptoms and 7 treatment principles and precautions for sexually transmitted diseases after infection

Sexually transmitted diseases are the most serious and widespread infectious diseases that harm humanity. It not only endangers personal health, but also endangers families, future generations, and society. The following are the main symptoms of sexually transmitted diseases.

Genital ulcer is a typical manifestation of primary syphilis. The diameter of the ulcer is generally around centimeters, and it mostly occurs in the coronal sulcus of the penis in males,

Women mainly occur in the labia majora, labia minora, or cervix. Due to the absence of obvious pus on the surface of the ulcer, the patient does not feel pain and is often overlooked until they go to the hospital for a secondary syphilitic rash.

2. The appearance of genital warts may infect genital warts. Patients with genital warts generally do not feel uncomfortable, and they do not cause pain or discomfort during urination, nor do they cause external genital ulcers. It quietly occurs and gradually increases until one day the patient intentionally or unintentionally notices small warts on the external genitalia. Genital warts are more common in males in the coronal sulcus, penis, and inner foreskin, while in females in the labia majora and labia minora. However, they can also occur in other parts of the genitalia, such as the urethral opening and cervix.

3. Small blisters in the external genitalia may infect genital herpes. Its characteristic is that there is a small pile of about 4-5 small blisters in the external genitalia, with localized burning or tingling sensation. These small blisters will soon burst into small pieces of erosive surface. The general symptoms of genital herpes are mild. Even without treatment, the erosive surface can grow in about 7-10 days, but it is prone to recurrence and brings huge psychological pressure to the patient.

4. The purulent discharge from the urethral opening should be suspected of being infected with gonorrhea. Sexually transmitted diseases usually directly damage the reproductive organs. The most common types of gonorrhea and non gonococcal urethritis are inflammation of the urinary and reproductive systems, leading to urethral pain and burning sensation during urination. There is either thin or thick purulent discharge at the urethral opening. When gonorrhea causes inflammation of the female reproductive system, there are purulent vaginal discharge, low back pain, and lower abdominal pain. Genital warts can grow cauliflower like masses of different sizes in the external genitalia, which are prone to bleeding and have foul purulent secretions on the surface. In severe cases, the female external genitalia may sometimes be covered with more cauliflower like lumps, even making it difficult to defecate and causing unbearable pain to the patient. Genital herpes presents small blisters on the external genitalia, followed by shallow ulcers with small amounts of secretions and severe pain. Genital organs also have lesions such as syphilis, soft lower genital area, and sexual lymphogranuloma. In addition to damaging the genital organs, sexually transmitted diseases can also cause internal and systemic diseases, such as gonorrhea and systemic sexually transmitted diseases. Therefore, as long as visceral damage is detected in a timely manner, suspected sexually transmitted diseases such as syphilis can be treated immediately.
