1. Urethritis and gonorrhea urethritis
Gonorrhea urethritis is a more serious disease. Gonorrhea urethritis is a sexually transmitted disease with specific infection. There is purulent secretion in the urethra. Gram-negative diplococci can be seen in the granulocyte of lobulated nucleus by smear staining. Secondly, it should be different from non-gonococcal urethritis and trichomonal urethritis. Women are easy to find trichomonas in the vagina, while men are not easy to find trichomonas. It is often necessary to check whether there are trichomonas in the secretion of the prepuce, urethral orifice, prostate fluid and urine to make a diagnosis. In addition to urethritis, Reiter syndrome also includes conjunctivitis and arthritis.
2. How to treat urethritis
The treatment of urethritis depends on the situation. The treatment of acute and chronic diseases is different. The combination of antibiotics and chemical drugs is often used in acute urethritis. Attention should be paid to rest and adequate fluids should be replenished during systemic treatment. During acute period, sexual life should be avoided in a short time, otherwise, the course of disease will be prolonged; During the chronic period, if the external urethral orifice or internal urethral stricture, urethral dilation should be performed. If the patient has urinary tract irritation sign, regular antibiotic treatment is invalid, and if there are complicated factors, it should be considered as mycoplasma, chlamydia or virus infection, and tetracycline can be used first. If there is resistance to tetracycline, erythromycin, methylerythromycin or roxithromycin can be used instead. The above drugs are effective against mycoplasma and chlamydia. If the above treatment is still ineffective, it may be acute urethral syndrome.
Therefore, although the symptoms of urethritis are relatively obvious, it is still necessary to invite experienced doctors to diagnose for themselves to avoid confusion with other diseases. At the same time, treatment should be carried out immediately after diagnosis, and appropriate drugs should be selected according to the disease and physical conditions of the patients.
Men drink more water and hold less urine to prevent urinary tract infection
Men are vulnerable to some diseases, especially in hot summer, and often get urinary tract infections, such as urethritis. So how should we prevent andrology diseases and ensure their health? Experts said that men should develop the good habit of drinking more water and holding less urine at ordinary times.
There are many men who seldom drink water at ordinary times. They often think of drinking water when they are thirsty. When you are busy, you can't pay attention to anything. Not only do you not drink water, but also you have the habit of holding urine, which is easy to let bacteria "invade" the urethra. At the same time, there are many other details of life, such as swimming in the swimming pool that is not thoroughly disinfected to relieve the heat, people living in collective dormitories do not dry their underwear in the ventilated and sunny places, and do not have the habit of washing hands before urinating, which will increase the chance of male urinary tract infection. In summer, people's "sexual arousal" is usually high, but frequent married life will make men too tired and reduce their resistance. The decline of resistance is the basis of urinary tract infection.
If you want to stay away from diseases such as reproductive infection, you need to have good living and eating habits. Drink more water, don't hold your urine, and properly increase the number of urination. Don't sit in places with poor ventilation for a long time, such as thick sofa, motorcycle cushion, etc. For the old patients with urinary tract infection, if each attack occurs after sex, pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva before and after the couple's life, and urinate in time after sex. Pay attention to the water quality when swimming, and avoid swimming in those dirty outdoor swimming pools.
Therefore, if men want to prevent andrology diseases, they need to pay attention to whether their daily life and eating habits are healthy and incorrect. The simplest way is to form the habit of drinking more water and holding less urine. Through these small habits, men can stay away from common diseases such as urinary tract infection.
Urethritis may affect fertility
People often pay little attention to some diseases. For example, men are particularly vulnerable to reproductive infections such as urethritis, and many men think that urethritis is no big deal and can be treated without treatment. Don't you know that urethritis is very harmful, and even affects the fertility of men.
Urethritis can be divided into several types, and the harm of different types to patients is also different. Non gonococcal urethritis is a common male urinary infectious diseases. The main route of transmission is through sexual life, so it is also a sexually transmitted disease. Its pathogens include bacteria, chlamydia, mycoplasma, trichomonas and herpes simplex virus. The typical symptoms of non-gonococcal urethritis are increased urinary secretion, painful urination, and itching of the urethra. Among infertile couples, especially those with so-called unexplained infertility, the proportion of pathogens such as chlamydia and mycoplasma in male semen is far higher than that of normal people, so these pathogens can be considered as one of the factors leading to infertility.
Why does urethritis cause male infertility? The main reason is that urethritis will have certain effects on other reproductive organs. Urethral stricture and ejaculatory dysfunction caused by urethritis can directly affect the epithelium of the urethra and form scars in the infected area. When this condition is serious, it can cause urethral stricture, cause difficulty in urination, and also cause ejaculation obstacle. Infection of adjacent organs of the urethra, such as epididymitis, can cause obstruction and prevent sperm from being transported out of the testis. If prostatitis, there may be a large number of white blood cells in the semen, which will lead to infertility.
It can be seen that the harm of urethritis is not the same as some people think. In fact, its harm is greater. Therefore, if a man gets urethritis, he should be treated in time no matter what. If he can't procrastinate, the more he procrastinates, the more troublesome it will be. In addition, it may bring other diseases and affect the fertility of the patient.
