Some men have yellow discharge from the glans penis.

What is the disease of yellow discharge from the glans penis?

If there is yellow discharge from the glans penis, we should first understand whether we have a history of unclean sexual intercourse. If there is yellow discharge, the first thing we often remind is that it is related to sexually transmitted diseases. For example, gonorrhea is often associated with a history of unclean sexual intercourse, accompanied by pus discharge and urinary pain. Based on this situation, we can basically consider the diagnosis of gonorrhea. For natural diagnosis, we need to test the urethral secretions. The urethral secretions can be found in the laboratory to find chlamydia, so that we can diagnose it.

But there is also a situation of urinary tract infection and prostatitis, in which light yellow liquid may flow out of the urethra. We need further examination. Based on the laboratory examination of secretions, it can usually be diagnosed.

As for treatment, if it is gonorrhea, we need intravenous infusion of ceftriaxone. If it is chronic prostatitis or urinary tract infection, we can achieve cure through oral antibiotics and some blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing therapeutic drugs.

What to do if a man has a urinary tract infection?

Male urinary tract infection is not uncommon in clinical medicine. For male urinary tract infection, you should first go to the urology department for medical treatment and perform a urine test. If the urine test results show an increase in white blood cells in the urine, it can be confirmed as a urinary tract infection. The male urethra is longer and generally not easy to cause bacterial infection. If a male urinary tract infection is found, the patient generally has some factors that cause infection. For example, for patients with long-term indwelling catheters, it is easy to cause bacterial infection due to damage to the mucous membrane of the urogenital system or the presence of a catheter. At this time, antibiotics are generally required for treatment, and the catheter should be replaced in time. For male urinary tract infections caused by urethral stones or urogenital obstruction, in addition to standard antibiotic treatment, it is generally necessary to carry out comprehensive treatment for these causative factors.
