How to treat fungal urethritis in men

Fungal urethritis is actually a relatively common male disease. Generally speaking, the symptoms of fungal urethritis are seriously harmful to male patients. Therefore, in order to prevent the inflammation of fungal urethritis from infecting surrounding organs, patients with fungal urethritis need to take treatment measures for the disease as soon as possible.

Male mycotic urethritis is a rare disease, which is related to many factors such as unhygienic conditions, long-term chronic wasting diseases and abuse of broad-spectrum antibiotics. In addition, redundant foreskin is also one of the key causes of the disease.

1. Use targeted medications based on the pathogen. In addition to the more familiar mycoplasma and chlamydia (the main infecting microorganisms), 10%-20% of this disease can be caused by vaginal Trichomonas, Candida albicans, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus, yeast, anaerobic Gram-negative bacilli, etc. Therefore, the treatment of non-gonococcal gonorrhea should be different for each person, and the medication should be determined according to the infecting microorganism.

2. Sufficient course of treatment. Mycoplasma and Chlamydia are intracellular parasitic microorganisms that are not as sensitive to antibiotics as ordinary bacteria, so the duration of medication should be relatively long, generally about two weeks. Patients are advised not to blindly purchase and take medicine on their own, as this may cause the pathogens to come into contact with the medicine without being killed and develop drug resistance, and the medicine will be ineffective next time.

3. It is best to use a single drug. The interactions between drugs are complex and variable. Generally speaking, unless it is known that there is a synergistic and complementary effect between them, more than two drugs should not be used at the same time to treat non-gonococcal urethritis. Because doing so is often harmful rather than beneficial. If there is an antagonistic effect between drugs, it will reduce the efficacy, increase the cost of treatment, and increase the resistance of pathogens to drugs, thereby making further treatment more difficult.

4. Pay attention to the examination and treatment of sexual partners. For various reasons, some people who have sexually transmitted diseases do not want to let their families know, so they also ignore the diagnosis and treatment of their sexual partners, resulting in repeated infections. This does not mean that treatment is ineffective.

5. Do not drink alcohol during the treatment of fungal urethritis, and pay attention to exerting the body's disease resistance. Drug treatment requires the cooperation of the body's disease resistance to achieve better treatment effects. Drinking alcohol and continuing to have sex (even if condoms are used) during treatment will greatly reduce the efficacy, which is easy to be ignored by some young people. In addition, there are also irregular life rhythms, eating spicy hot pot and other foods, overwork, chronic diseases and other situations.

How should men treat fungal urethritis? In fact, when treating fungal urethritis in men, the methods described in the article can be used. However, male patients with fungal urethritis need to pay attention to the fact that what method they should take to treat the disease depends on their own condition.
