Patient's question:
Previously, there was a time when we did not have sexual intercourse. Later, I heard that the person had a sexually transmitted disease. I am very worried. Could you please tell me what medicine is used to treat chronic gonorrhea?Doctor's answer:
Gonorrhea is generally transmitted through sexual contact and is caused by a gonococcal infection leading to urethritis. Patients may experience symptoms such as dysuria, hematuria, back pain, and a sense of fullness. In males, gonorrhea can lead to secondary complications such as prostatitis, orchitis, and epididymitis. Chronic cases are more difficult to treat, so it is recommended to visit a regular hospital for a drug sensitivity test. Treatment should be determined based on the examination results to select appropriate antibiotics.
