What is gonorrhea?
Gonorrhea is a purulent inflammatory disease of the genitourinary system caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Gonorrhea is one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases in China.
What are the common symptoms?
Urethral discharge: purulent discharge appears at the urethral opening, with a variable yellow viscosity. It is particularly common when waking up in the morning, which may be due to acute gonorrhea. If the amount is small, it may be non gonococcal urethritis.
Urethral itching: The initial symptoms of gonorrhea in men are often considered as non gonococcal urethritis and gonococcal urethritis.
Frequent urination, urgency, painful urination, and redness and swelling of the urethral opening in males: When males experience these symptoms and are accompanied by nocturnal penile pain and erection, acute gonococcal urethritis is more likely to be considered.
Vulval vegetation: If multiple infiltrating, gray white, flat and protruding papules or nodules are seen in the external genitalia or perianal area, and are prone to erosion due to dampness, accompanied by a foul odor, it is more likely to be considered as flat condyloma (Treponema pallidum infection); If there are light red or grayish brown, cauliflower shaped or cockscomb shaped, and pedunculated warts in the external genitalia or perianal area, they are prone to bleeding and are often considered as genital warts; If a hemispherical papule with the size of a grain of rice is seen around the anus or vulva, with a central umbilical fossa and a waxy luster on the surface, and the top can be ruptured to extrude cheese like substances, it should be considered as a contagious soft wart.
Ulcers of the external genitalia: If it is a circular ulcer, with hard cartilage, no pain, single occurrence, it is more likely to be caused by soft ulcers with serrated edges, shallow edges, accompanied by pain, multiple cases of pus coating, and multiple cases of soft scabies
What are the common causes of gonorrhea?
Unclean sexual activity: This is one of the important reasons for the occurrence of the disease. Many patients have developed the disease as a result, and the disease has the characteristics of fast transmission speed and high probability of transmission, usually occurring 3-5 days after the disease occurs
Traumatic infection: This is one of the important causes of gonorrhea. The viral form of gonorrhea can invade the body through small ruptured wounds on the skin or mucosa, and the pathogenic bacteria begin to occur after a few days of incubation. Therefore, it is necessary to treat ruptured wounds with caution to prevent the cause of gonorrhea infection.
