Causes and TCM treatment of non-gonococcal urethritis

Medically speaking, non-gonococcal urethritis is a type of sexually transmitted disease, and its clinical manifestations are similar to those of common urethritis, but gonococci cannot be detected in the secretions. Especially in some European and American countries, non-gonococcal urethritis has become one of the most common male sexually transmitted diseases. So, what is its cause?

Causes

Non-gonococcal urethritis is a multi-cause syndrome, and the pathogens are mostly chlamydia, mycoplasma, trichomonas, herpes virus, candida, etc. 30% to 50% of non-gonococcal urethritis is related to Chlamydia trachomatis, 20% to 30% is caused by Ureaplasma urealyticum infection, and 10% is caused by microorganisms such as vaginal Trichomonas, Candida albicans, herpes simplex virus, Mycoplasma genitalium, adenovirus and bacillus. Chlamydia and mycoplasma have weak resistance to the external environment. They can be killed by heating to 56 degrees for 5 to 10 minutes. Common disinfectants such as formalin, Lysol, carbolic acid, etc. can also easily kill them.

Chinese medicine treatment

In view of the etiology and pathogenesis of non-gonococcal urethritis, Chinese medicine should be mainly used to clear away heat and detoxify, promote diuresis and relieve stranguria, supplemented by strengthening the kidney and strengthening the foundation, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, strengthening the body and eliminating evil, and improving the body's immunity. For example, Yinhua Miyanling Tablets made from authentic and high-quality Chinese herbal medicines are selected. It is mainly used to treat heat stranguria and damp-heat syndrome in the lower part of the body, and has significant effects on frequent urination, urgent urination, astringent and painful urination, short and red urine, stranguria, red and yellow urine, low back pain, and abdominal distension. Staphylococcus aureus is a common pathogen of urinary tract infection in non-gonococcal urethritis. Since the drug resistance rate of Staphylococcus aureus is as high as 62%, Western antibiotics and some Chinese medicines are helpless in treating infections caused by this bacterium. This is a large compound Chinese patent medicine made from pure natural plants. It is made up of honeysuckle, a local herb known as the "king of heat-clearing and detoxifying herbs", as the main ingredient. It has a total of ten famous and precious herbs. It uses the multi-target synergistic effects of honeysuckle, barbata, Polygonum multiflorum, Dianthus superbus, Ligusticum chuanxiong, Caulis et Rhizoma Plantago-aquatica, Lophatherum gracile, Morus alba, and Eupatorium effusum to significantly improve the bactericidal activity against Staphylococcus aureus, and has stronger sensitivity and antibacterial effects against Staphylococcus aureus. It is more effective and more stable in the clinical treatment of non-gonococcal urethritis caused by Staphylococcus aureus.

In summary, for male patients with non-gonococcal urethritis, timely treatment is the key, and it is recommended to try Chinese medicine treatment, which has a more ideal effect. Of course, if the actual situation of the individual does not allow the use of Chinese medicine, then it is also possible to try other treatment methods.
