Causes and hazards of acute urethritis in men

When it comes to acute urethritis in men, you may not be very familiar with it. Some men find it very embarrassing to talk about acute urethritis because it is a very embarrassing urethral disease. Therefore, men with acute urethritis often hide their disease and postpone treatment again and again, which often leads to the disease developing to a dangerous point before going to the hospital for treatment. So, do you know what causes acute urethritis in men? What are the dangers of acute urethritis in men?

reason:

1) Unclean sexual life (marriage). It mainly refers to the invasion of pathogenic microorganisms into the urethra. These microorganisms are mainly gonococci, non-gonococci, mycoplasma, chlamydia, Candida albicans, Trichomonas and some resident bacteria in the human body. They invade the urethra and surrounding glands, causing urethritis, prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis, epididymitis and other diseases.

2) Mechanical or chemical stimulation. For example, urethral instrument examination, indwelling catheter, inflammatory damage to the urethral mucosa, such as edema, hyperplasia, has not yet recovered, or local nerves are stretched, thus leading to the occurrence of urethritis.

3) Bad living habits and hobbies. Such as masturbation, excessive sexual intercourse, smoking and drinking, wearing tight underwear, long-term bicycle and horse riding, long-term indwelling catheter, foreign bodies in the urethra, etc., which put pressure on and damage the urethra, leading to local congestion, ischemia, and hypoxia, reducing the resistance of the urethral mucosa, making it very easy to get infected and cause urethritis.

harm:

1. Leading to chronic renal failure: The biggest feature of urethritis is that it can easily turn into a chronic disease, and severe cases can cause chronic renal failure. According to the latest statistics, 25% of chronic renal failure is caused by urethritis.

2. Cause sexual dysfunction and lead to infertility: Urethritis causes urethral stenosis and ejaculation dysfunction, which can directly affect the urethral epithelium and form scars at the infected site. In severe cases, this can cause difficulty in urination and can also cause ejaculation dysfunction and lead to infertility.

3. Cause complications such as cystitis and prostatitis: Bacteria lurking in the urethra enter the urethral crypts, paraurethral glands, bulbar urethra, prostate and seminal vesicle, vas deferens, epididymis and testicles, causing a series of complications such as cystitis, prostatitis, paraurethral abscess, urethral fistula, etc., which are very harmful to male reproductive health.

The above are the causes and hazards of acute urethritis in men. Have you seen them clearly? If you find someone around you suffering from acute urethritis in men, don't hide it. Go to the hospital for treatment in time to avoid chronic renal failure, sexual dysfunction, cystitis and other diseases.
