What are the misconceptions in the treatment of urethritis? What are the hazards associated with female patients

Many people say that treating urethritis is difficult, but in reality, radical treatment may be related to some reasons, most likely due to errors in the patient's treatment and long-term recovery of urethritis. So, what are the common mistakes in daily treatment of urethritis?

Urethritis is divided into acute and chronic, non-specific urethritis, and gonococcal urethritis. Neisseria gonorrhoeae, chlamydia, and mycoplasma, which cause urethritis, are one of the pathogenic bacteria that cause infertility. Chlamydia and Mycoplasma can cause symptoms of urethritis to be unclear or even asymptomatic, leading many people to mistakenly believe that there is no sexually transmitted disease without symptoms, delaying the timing of examination and treatment. The misconceptions in treating urethritis are as follows:

1. Suffering from urethritis, self medication for treatment

Women suffering from urethritis and blindly using medication without the doctor's permission not only have no therapeutic effect, but may also cause the opposite situation, dragging the condition into chronic diseases, causing pelvic inflammatory disease, and increasing the difficulty of recovery.

2. Using anti-inflammatory drugs to solve problems

Patients with frequent urination, urgency, and pain in urination can directly purchase anti-inflammatory drugs from pharmacies for treatment. These anti-inflammatory drugs contain antibiotics, which have certain toxic side effects and develop resistance, making future treatment difficult.

3. Using condoms during sexual activity can prevent urethritis

The purpose of using condoms during sexual activity is to avoid infection, but condoms also allow bacteria inside the vagina to reach the vaginal opening, which still has a high risk factor.

4. Urethritis should be cleaned more frequently

This method is to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause, and cleaning is only a local anti-inflammatory treatment. The condition is not fundamentally resolved, but instead leads to complications and infertility in women.

5. Once the symptoms of urethritis disappear, medication can be stopped

After the symptoms of female urethritis disappear, medication should continue for one to two weeks to prevent the recurrence of urethritis infection and ensure the smooth recovery of urethritis.

For urethritis, although we often hear about it in daily life, in fact, most women are not very familiar with it, so when urethritis suddenly strikes, many women are at a loss. In response to this question, we entrusted authoritative gynecological experts to provide detailed answers to the attack of urethritis and adopted our countermeasures.

There are many methods for treating urethritis, and the commonly used one is medication treatment. During the treatment process, do not blindly use medication, as symptomatic therapy is the key to treatment. So, female friends, if you experience the above symptoms, please go to a reputable hospital for examination in a timely manner, and receive medication treatment under the guidance of a doctor after diagnosis, in order to achieve the purpose of treatment.
