What's going on if the urethra opening is a little turned outward?

Reproductive health is something that everyone needs to maintain. The reproductive system is fragile and is the most important part of the body. Therefore, many people attach great importance to reproductive protection. However, some situations that affect reproductive health are inevitable in life. For example, the urethral opening is slightly everted, which makes many people feel troubled. I don’t know what this situation is. Let’s take a look at the specific explanation below.

Redness and swelling of the urethral opening is a manifestation of genitourinary tract infection, and acute urethritis is the most common in men.

Urethritis is an inflammation of the urethral mucosa. There are many causes for the disease, the most fundamental of which is the invasion of pathogenic microorganisms (such as gonococci, mycoplasma, chlamydia, Candida albicans, etc.) into the urethra. In addition, masturbation, smoking, drinking, wearing tight underwear, long-term bicycle riding, foreign bodies in the urethra, etc. can reduce the resistance of the urethral mucosa and make it easy to get infected.

Symptoms of urethritis:

1. Purulent discharge appears in the urethra, which is mucous at first and gradually becomes purulent, accompanied by redness and swelling of the urethral orifice, eversion of the mucosa, urgency, frequency, pain, stinging pain in the urethra, mental depression, and in severe cases, chills, high fever, and difficulty urinating.

2. The secretion of patients with chronic urethritis will decrease. In the non-acute attack period, the symptoms of frequent urination, painful urination, and urgent urination will be alleviated, accompanied only by itching or ants. Some patients may have no symptoms. It is generally easy to ignore and misdiagnose.

3. According to statistics, 20% of chronic renal failure is caused by urethritis if urethritis is not cured for a long time or is allowed to develop. Nearly 80% of patients with sexual dysfunction and infertility are related to the pathological changes of urethritis. At the same time, because the bacteria hidden in the urethra enter the urethral crypts, paraurethral glands, urethral bulbs, prostate and seminal vesicles, vas deferens, epididymis and testicles, it causes a series of complications such as cystitis, prostatitis, paraurethral abscesses, urethral fistulas, etc., which are very harmful to male reproductive health.
