Patient's question:
What physical changes will a man experience if he suffers from urethritis? Pay attention to cleaning the urethra, can it heal on its own? Is treatment necessary?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of male urethritis are primarily discomfort during urination, such as frequent urination, urgency, dysuria, and urethral irritation. There may also be mucoid or purulent discharge from the urethral orifice, swelling and redness of the urethral orifice. Some patients may also experience fatigue, chills, and high fever. If it develops into chronic urethritis, the discharge from the urethral orifice may decrease, accompanied by itching or a sensation of ants crawling. Some patients may even have no symptoms. Urethritis must be treated actively, as it cannot heal on its own if left untreated. Additionally, it may lead to further complications, such as other reproductive infections, sexual dysfunction, and infertility.
