Can sexual contact spread sexually transmitted diseases? How to effectively prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases
Sexually transmitted diseases are a collective term for all diseases related to sexual behavior. With the deepening of their research, the types of sexually transmitted diseases have increased from syphilis, gonorrhea, soft nutrition, fourth sexually transmitted disease, and inguinal granuloma in the past to over 20 currently. Some of these diseases, such as AIDS and condyloma acuminatum, have been recognized by more and more people, but some new sexually transmitted diseases, such as lice disease, hepatitis B and nongonococcal urethritis, have not received due attention, so it is particularly important to prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases. Although sexually transmitted diseases are mainly transmitted through sexual contact transmission, they are also transmitted through contaminated household utensils. Therefore, for patients with sexually transmitted diseases, not only should they actively treat the disease, but also prevent them from harming their families. The specific measures are as follows: 1. Stop sexual activity and all marginal sexual activities. Because some sexually transmitted diseases are transmitted through the transfer of sexual organs, but most can be transmitted through other means, such as tears, sweat, semen, saliva, blood, etc. Because before a sexually transmitted disease is cured, it is absolutely not allowed to engage in sexual activity with a spouse, or even engage in borderline sexual activities, such as kissing. For safety reasons, it is also important to avoid intimacy with children as much as possible. When to resume sexual activity, follow the doctor's guidance. In addition, if one party suffers from sexually transmitted diseases, both the husband and wife should be examined or treated at the same time (especially gonorrheal vaginitis, syphilis, soft nutrition, AIDS, inguinal granuloma, etc.), Even if the spouse does not experience symptoms of this disease, timely medication should be used for prevention and treatment. 2. Some STDs, such as hepatitis B, syphilis, AIDS, etc., can be transmitted from mother to child or from father to child. They should give birth temporarily, or take corresponding measures to block the transmission of fetal diseases. 3. Once a family member has a sexually transmitted disease patient, they should thoroughly disinfect the clothes, towels, bath towels, bowls, etc. worn by the patient. They can first be washed with soap and water, and then steamed in a pot for more than 15-20 minutes. It can kill sexual pathogens. Items contaminated by AIDS virus need to be boiled for 20 minutes. Items that have been used by patients and can be moved can be exposed to sunlight for 2-3 hours or frozen outdoors at night, but with temperature requirements. For items that cannot be moved, such as toilets, doors and windows, countertops, door handles, floors, bathrooms, bathtubs, etc., wipe or clean them with "84" disinfectant, 5% bleach powder, baking soda, etc. For example, some small utensils, such as tea cups. Chopsticks can also be soaked and disinfected.
