Urethritis is a common reproductive tract infection in men's medicine. Since the symptoms are not particularly obvious, it is easy for men to ignore it and then develop into more serious symptoms. In order to detect this disease as early as possible, men should first understand the symptoms.

What are the symptoms of male urethritis?

1. In the early stages of male urethritis, the symptoms are often not very obvious, and many urethritis patients have no symptoms or only very mild symptoms.

2. What are the most common symptoms of male urethritis? Experts say that clinically, it is found that many male urethritis symptoms are mainly itching or burning sensation in the urethra, and may also experience urinary urgency or difficulty urinating.

The harm of male urethritis to the body

1. It causes complications such as cystitis and prostatitis. At the same time, bacteria hidden in the urethra enter the urethral crypts, paraurethral glands, urethral bulb, prostate and seminal vesicle, vas deferens, epididymis and testicles, causing cystitis, prostatitis, paraurethral abscess, urethral fistula, reduced sperm quantity and quality, impotence, premature ejaculation, male infertility, etc.

2. Cause sexual dysfunction. Lead to chronic renal failure. The biggest feature of urethritis is that it can easily turn into a chronic disease. Severe cases can cause chronic renal failure. According to the latest statistics, 25% of chronic renal failure is caused by urethritis.

3. Lead to infertility. Urethritis can cause male infertility, mainly because inflammation causes urethral stenosis and obstruction of the urethral opening. If it affects the vas deferens and epididymis, it can cause fibrous tissue hyperplasia, deformation, and scar formation, resulting in obstruction of the vas deferens. When complicated with inflammation of the epididymis, seminal vesicles, and prostate, it can affect the quality of semen and reduce sperm survival rate and motility.

4. Cause urethral stenosis and ejaculation disorders. Urethritis can cause urethral stenosis and ejaculation dysfunction. Urethritis can directly affect the epithelium of the urethra and form scars at the infected site. In severe cases, this can cause urethral stenosis, resulting in difficulty in urination and ejaculation disorders.

If a man experiences urethral discomfort, he must check the cause immediately, because it is likely that he has been infected with urethritis. If not treated properly, it can lead to other male diseases, endanger your health, and even cause serious consequences such as male infertility.
