Is non-gonococcal urethritis serious and how to treat it

Urethritis is a disease that affects a wide range of people, and is more common in women than in men. Non-gonococcal urethritis is a type of urethritis and is more difficult to treat. Many people have chosen different treatments but have not achieved good results. Let us now learn about the severity of non-gonococcal urethritis and its treatment methods.

1. It is very serious. Drinking plenty of water can increase urine volume and flush out urethral secretions during urination;

2. Use sedative, analgesic and antispasmodic drugs to relieve pain

3. Pay attention to rest and avoid sexual intercourse in the short term during the acute phase

4. Antibiotic treatment (norfloxacin). Select effective antibiotics based on bacterial culture and drug sensitivity test

5. Use pH 4 weak acidic care solution to clean the private parts and take antibiotics

6. In case of chronic urethritis or urethral stenosis, urethral dilation should be performed in addition to drug treatment.

7. Urethritis is a common disease, which can be clinically divided into acute and chronic types. It is more common in women, and the most common pathogens are Escherichia coli, Streptococcus and Staphylococcus. Urethritis is often caused by obstruction at the urethral opening or within the urethra, such as phimosis, posterior urethral valves, urethral stenosis, or urethral stones and tumors, or by inflammation of adjacent organs spreading to the urethra, such as seminal vesiculitis, vaginitis, and cervicitis. Urethritis can sometimes be caused by mechanical or chemical stimulation, such as instrumental examination and indwelling catheter.

Acute urethritis is treated with a combination of antibiotics and chemical drugs, which has a better effect. Recently, norfloxacin has been used in combination with sulfonamides, with satisfactory clinical results. Systemic treatment should include rest and adequate fluid intake. During the acute phase, sexual intercourse should be avoided as this will prolong the course of the disease. During the chronic stage, if there is stricture at the external urethral orifice or inside the urethra, urethral dilation or urethral opening splitting should be performed. For patients with chronic posterior urethritis who have long-term recurring attacks and are not effectively responded to systemic medications, local urethral medications may be considered.

8. If the patient has urinary tract irritation symptoms and conventional antimicrobial treatment is ineffective, and there are no complicating factors, mycoplasma, chlamydia or viral infection should be considered, and tetracycline can be used as the first treatment. If there is resistance to tetracycline, erythromycin, methyl erythromycin or roxithromycin can be used instead. The above drugs are effective against mycoplasma and chlamydia. If the above treatments are still ineffective, it may be acute urethral syndrome.

The above content introduces us to the relevant issues of whether non-gonococcal urethritis is serious and its treatment methods. The sooner these problems are solved, the less harm they will cause to our bodies. Surgical treatment is one of the most effective treatment methods, and there will be no series of recurrent infections in the later stage, which is very good for our physical health.
