Patient's question:
I had previously had urethritis and was quite careful after treating it. Later, I was diagnosed with penile tuberculosis when I went to the hospital for a check-up.Doctor's answer:
The urethra has a strong resistance to tuberculosis bacteria. The urethra is affected by both genitourinary tuberculosis and urinary tuberculosis, but urethral tuberculosis is still very rare. Urethral tuberculosis primarily occurs in males and is often accompanied by severe renal tuberculosis. In genitourinary tuberculosis, tuberculosis is a very rare disease with an incidence rate of less than 1%.
