Will yellow discharge from the glans penis heal naturally?

The glans penis is an important male reproductive organ, mainly for secreting semen and urinating. Once the glans penis has yellow purulent discharge, we need to pay attention to it. This situation is mainly caused by glans inflammation or sexually transmitted diseases, and male patients need to be examined and treated in time. Yellow purulent discharge from the glans penis will not recover naturally, and the inflammation will become more and more serious if it is delayed. Male friends cannot miss the best time for treatment.

1. Penis discharge may be the main symptom of gonorrhea

Gonorrhea is characterized by the discharge of purulent secretions from the penis. The pathogenic bacteria of gonorrhea are gonococci, which enter the epithelial cells of the urethral mucosa and multiply inside the cells to form acute inflammation. A large number of white blood cells gather at the inflamed site to phagocytize the bacteria. The endotoxins released by the dead bacteria cause the mucosal layer to necrotize, producing a large amount of purulent secretions that are discharged from the penis.

The initial symptoms of gonorrhea are redness, swelling, itching and slight tingling of the penis, followed by purulent discharge from the penis, which gradually worsens. If effective treatment is not taken at this time, it may turn into chronic gonococcal urethritis. Some patients may also develop prostatitis, seminal vesiculitis, epididymitis, etc.

2. Penile pus discharge may be fungal balanitis

If the fungal glans infection causes the purulent discharge, the affected area will also show erythema, swelling, fever, ulceration, exudation, and in severe cases, blisters and pustules may appear. The patient will feel burning and pain. In severe cases, the patient will have fever, general weakness and other discomforts. If the male fungal infection of glans does not heal for a long time, the glans and foreskin will adhere to each other, forming secondary phimosis, and even leading to stenosis of the external urethral opening.

3. Penile discharge may be caused by balanitis

Penile discharge is most commonly caused by infectious balanitis. Non-infectious factors are mostly due to excessive foreskin and insufficient cleaning, which results in the accumulation of smegma, which irritates the local foreskin and causes penile discharge. Penile discharge is generally a symptom of balanitis. 4. Penile discharge may be caused by urethritis.

Turbid urine, urethral itching, purulent secretions in the urethra, which are mucous at first and gradually become purulent, accompanied by redness and swelling of the urethral opening, mucosal eversion, urgency, frequency, pain, stinging pain in the urethra, mental depression, and in severe cases, chills, high fever, and difficulty urinating. The secretions of patients with chronic urethritis will decrease, and the symptoms of frequent urination, pain, and urgency will be alleviated during the non-acute attack period, accompanied only by itching or a tingling sensation.

What are the dangers of glansitis in men?

1. Leading to systemic diseases: Penitis can easily lead to ascending systemic infection, which is common in cystitis and pyelonephritis. Especially for chronic penitis that cannot be cured for a long time, it is most likely to lead to systemic diseases. If the acute stage of the disease is not properly handled, it may be life-threatening.

2. Can cause male infertility: Due to long-term stimulation of the reproductive system sperm, sexual response regulation, and secretions hidden in the foreskin, they enter the vagina together with semen during sexual intercourse, reducing the quality of semen and destroying the ovarian cells, leading to male infertility.

3. Harm to reproductive system health: Penitis can easily lead to inflammation of the prostate, testicles, vas deferens and other organs. If not treated in time, they will be infected with each other, causing great harm to the reproductive system.

4. It can cause sexual dysfunction: During the inflammation period of the glans penis, the sensory nerves of the glans penis are in a sensitive period. In addition, the damage caused by inflammation makes it easy to have premature ejaculation during sexual life, which can lead to impotence in the long run. In addition, the foreskin shrinks and adheres, forming a hypertrophic narrow ring, which pulls and compresses the penis backwards when it is erect, leading to impotence, premature ejaculation, etc.

How to care for the male glans

The sebum of the male foreskin will secrete a kind of white secretion, which will accumulate for a long time and form smegma. At the same time, because the foreskin is too long, the foreskin will "wrap" the male's glans, keeping the glans in a dark and humid environment for a long time. The dark and humid environment and smegma are the best places and nutrients for bacteria to reproduce. Male friends should pay attention to washing the glans foreskin to eliminate the hidden dangers of bacterial reproduction.

The foreskin is too long, the urethral opening is red and swollen, and light yellow discharge can be seen from the urethral opening when the urethra is squeezed. The amount is not much. The underwear is also sticky with yellow discharge. The testicles are not enlarged and there is no tenderness. The prostate is not large and soft during anal examination.

Since the inner layer of the foreskin is thinner and more sensitive to chemical detergents than the outer layer, you only need to clean the foreskin and glans every day when you take a shower. After pulling the foreskin back to the glans, rinse off the accumulated dirt and sebum with clean water.

If dirt accumulates between the foreskin and the glans and causes inflammation, you can soak and scrub it with a special vulva disinfectant and cleaning solution. If it is serious, you should consult a specialist. If it is a foreskin, it is often impossible to completely clean the smegma. Even if the foreskin can be turned up, it is easy to cause foreskin incarceration. It is recommended to perform circumcision as soon as possible.
