Patient's question:
If it's serious, I'm very worried about it affecting my health and work. The glans is sore and there's a thick discharge. How should it be treated and what medicine should I take?Doctor's answer:
Gonorrhea is an acute purulent inflammation of the urinary and reproductive system caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection. It is primarily spread through sexual contact. The main clinical symptoms include itching, redness, and swelling at the urethral orifice, frequent urination, painful urination, and a yellowish-white purulent discharge from the urethral orifice. In cases that do not heal, it may even affect fertility. The essential medication for gonorrhea is ceftriaxone sodium. In cases of ceftriaxone allergy, erythromycin or quinolone drugs can be used. It is recommended to conduct drug sensitivity tests to determine the sensitive medication. Do not take medication without authorization. Drink plenty of water, urinate frequently, and both sexual partners should be treated simultaneously. Isolate and sterilize clothing that has had close contact. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
