However, some people will find that if the disease is very special and appears in private parts, they will be embarrassed to speak up. There are reasons for the blackening of the male urethra. Let's see what the reasons are related to, so that we can do protection and treatment in advance.

What is the reason for the blackening of the male urethra?

Generally, the color of the male urethral opening is slightly redder than the glans penis, and its red range does not exceed the outer edge of the urethral opening. It is naturally closed and does not cause swelling, secretion, pain, etc. The surface layer of the male urethral opening is mucosa, which has abundant capillaries. There are urethral glands in the anterior urethra, which have many glandular ducts opening in the urethral mucosa and can secrete colorless transparent mucus to keep the urethral opening moist.

The causes of black urethra in men include:

1. Irritation caused by excessive foreskin or foreskin:

Because the irritation of the foreskin or foreskin can cause the urethra to turn black and purple, but the patient often has no other discomfort and no secretions from the urethra. Some people often suffer from balanitis, at which time small red spots of varying sizes can be seen on the glans, which is locally moist and itchy. For the above situation, it is recommended to remove the excessive foreskin or foreskin, so that the glans penis is exposed and kept dry.

2. Blackening of the urethra caused by idiopathic urethritis or infectious diseases

Transmitted diseases may also cause the urethral opening to turn black, which is mainly manifested by abnormal symptoms of the urethral opening, such as urethral stinging, increased secretions, redness, swelling and pus, etc. Severe cases can also cause the urethral opening to turn black. For people who have unclean sexual behavior, if they find that the urethral opening turns black or purple, they should go to a regular hospital for a specialist examination to obtain a clear diagnosis and regular treatment.
