What causes burning in the urethra when urinating?

In life, men's health has received a lot of attention. Male friends often experience urethral burning when urinating, but they don't know what the problem is. Some people even think that this is normal. In fact, we still need to pay more attention to this knowledge and let us observe what kind of disease this is. So, what is the cause of urethral burning when urinating? Let's take a look at what the following content says:

1. Doctors pointed out that from a clinical point of view, urethral burning is a common symptom of men's diseases when they urinate. Among men's diseases, urethritis is the most common one that causes urinary pain. Urethritis also has other symptoms, such as frequent urination, urgency, redness and swelling, white discharge, urethral stinging and difficulty urinating. Although women are generally more likely to suffer from urethritis, men's urethritis has also been on the rise recently.

2. And what’s more important is that the consequences of male urethritis are more serious than those of female urethritis. After the pathogens invade the urethral mucosa, they continue to multiply and destroy the adjacent normal tissue structures, causing prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis, epididymitis, and orchitis. So although male urethral burning is not a particularly serious symptom, the complications caused by it will affect health and family harmony.

If a male friend experiences urethral burning caused by urethritis, the doctor should inquire about the medical history in detail to find out whether the patient complies with the doctor's instructions for taking medication, as well as the patient's sexual life and whether the sexual partner has received treatment. This is because many male urinary pains are caused by bacteria transmitted during sexual intercourse. Male patients with urethral burning should undergo careful examination to find out whether they still have gonococci or chlamydia.

3. Inflammatory damage to the urethral mucosa, such as edema, hyperplasia that has not yet recovered, or local nerve traction, can cause symptoms of male urethral burning. If not treated properly or not thoroughly, gonococci will develop drug resistance, or if the patient does not take the medicine as prescribed by the doctor, drinks alcohol, and eats spicy food, it will cause male urethritis to be difficult to cure. Not only will the male urethral burning persist, but more importantly, various complications will lead to infertility or sexual dysfunction.

After understanding the causes of urethral burning when urinating, we must seriously understand the treatment of this disease. After noticing male urethral burning when urinating, male friends must go to the hospital for disease diagnosis and treatment in order to better protect the health of male patients. Finally, I wish those male friends who are sick a speedy recovery!
