Symptoms and precautions of redness and swelling of the glans urethra

1. Introduction of symptoms

The swelling of the urethra is a manifestation of inflammatory infection of the urogenital system. In men, urethritis is the most common. The swelling of the urethra is mostly the acute inflammatory stage of urethritis. At the same time, men often experience itching, burning, and stinging in the urethra, and sometimes urgency and difficulty in urination. The urethra is congested or swollen, with sebaceous, mucous or thin white secretions, or there is a "sweating" phenomenon in the morning.

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 into the urethra. These microorganisms are mainly gonococci, gonococci, mycoplasmas, chlamydia, candida albicans, trichomonas, and some bacteria that normally reside in the human body. Masturbation habits, excessive masturbation, smoking, drinking, wearing tight underwear, long-term bicycle riding, horse riding, long-term indwelling catheters, urethral foreign bodies, etc., put pressure on and damage the urethra, leading to local congestion, ischemia, and hypoxia, which reduces the resistance of the urethral mucosa and makes it easy to get infected.

2. Pay attention to a few points

1. Pay attention to hygiene, especially girls should wash their vulva with warm water every night to prevent infection; newborns should wash their buttocks and vulva immediately after defecation.

2. Change diapers and underwear frequently, and try not to wear open-crotch pants.

3. Do not let the baby crawl or sit on the ground to play.

When the urethral opening becomes red and swollen due to urinary tract infection, the following methods can be used to care for the child:

2. Rinse the vulva 1-2 times a day with warm water or 1:5000 potassium permanganate warm water.

You can use 30 grams of wild chrysanthemum, 30 grams of honeysuckle, 15 grams of phellodendron, and 30 grams of plantain, boil it into a decoction, cool it down, and wash the affected area with warm water 3 times a day.
