What is the reason for white discharge from the head of the penis?

Patient's question:

Condition Description: There is white discharge, it's a bit itchy, and it has been going on for about two days. I took some ornidazole. I have sexual activity, but we are living in different places and meet once a month.

Doctor's answer:

From the situation you described, the first consideration is prostatitis, which has many types. For example, chronic bacterial prostatitis is commonly characterized by frequent urination, urgency, and dysuria, as well as discomfort, heaviness in the perineum, lower abdomen, scrotum, inner thighs, and lower back. Urine may contain white mucus, and sometimes painful ejaculation may occur, accompanied by a decline in sexual function. A definitive diagnosis of prostatitis can be confirmed through prostatic fluid microscopy, which shows a large number of white blood cells and macrophages, reduced amounts of lecithin corpuscles, and persistent bacterial presence in bacterial culture. It is also necessary to consider urethritis and balanoposthitis. Please take this seriously and seek a definitive diagnosis from a hospital. Drink plenty of water, get adequate rest, and maintain cleanliness and dryness of the external genitalia.
