How do sexually transmitted diseases spread? To prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases, it is important to understand these three points
Sexually transmitted diseases are a collective term for all diseases related to sexual behavior. With their in-depth research, the types of sexually transmitted diseases have increased from syphilis, gonorrhea, soft camp, the fourth sexually transmitted disease and Granuloma inguinale to more than 20. Some of these diseases, such as AIDS and Genital wart, have been recognized by more and more people, but some new sexually transmitted diseases, such as pubic lice, hepatitis B and non gonococcal 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, they are also transmitted through contaminated household utensils. Therefore, in addition to Curative care, sexually transmitted diseases patients should also be prevented from affecting their families. The specific approach is 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 also be transmitted through other means such as tears, sweat, semen, saliva, blood, etc. Therefore, until the sexually transmitted disease is cured, you cannot engage in sexual activity with your spouse, or even engage in borderline sexual activities, such as kissing. For safety reasons, you should also try to avoid intimate relationships with children. 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, ptosis, AIDS, Granuloma inguinale, etc.). Even if the spouse does not experience symptoms of such lesions, medication should be taken promptly.
2. Some sexually transmitted diseases that can be transmitted from mother to child, such as hepatitis B, syphilis, AIDS, etc., should be delivered temporarily, or corresponding measures should be taken to block the transmission of fetal diseases.
3. Once family members suffer from sexually transmitted diseases, they should thoroughly disinfect their clothes, towels, bath towels, towels, and bowls. The clothes, towels, bath towels, and bowls worn by the patient can be washed with soapy water first, and then boiled in a pot for more than 15-20 minutes. It can kill sexual pathogens. HIV contaminated items need to be boiled for 20 minutes. Items that have been used and can be moved by patients can be exposed to sunlight for 2-3 hours, or frozen outdoors, but with temperature requirements. Non movable items such as toilets, doors and windows, countertops, door handles, floors, bathrooms, bathtubs, etc. "84" disinfectant, 5% bleach, lye solution, etc. For example, some small utensils, such as tea cups and bowls, can also be disinfected by soaking.
