What medicine should men take for itchy urethra?

When men have urethral itching, it is best to use medication, such as taking some anti-inflammatory drugs to relieve it. The main reason why men have urethral itching is that they do not pay attention to personal hygiene, especially sexual life, keeping the urethra clean, etc. These are all effective measures to prevent urethral itching.

Common causes of urethral itching in men

1. Male urethral itching is mostly caused by unclean sexual intercourse, which may cause mild stinging and red and swollen urethral opening. Then there is thin light white or light yellow mucus overflowing, which quickly becomes sticky purulent, light yellow or yellow-green, and sometimes purulent and bloody secretions. It constantly overflows from the urethral opening and contaminates underwear. Urethral itching in the morning, pus scab can seal the urethral opening (mouth). At this time, urination pain is severe. The characteristic of urinary disease is obvious pain when urinating. Severe cases have difficulty urinating, dare not urinate due to illness or interrupted urine flow, and often have painful erections of the penis at night. The inguinal lymph nodes on both sides can also be infected and cause redness, swelling, pain, and even purulent.

2. Male urethral itching is closely related to urethritis. When men suffer from acute or chronic urethritis, they usually experience abnormal urinary tract symptoms and urethral itching. Acute urethritis causes more urethral secretions, burning pain, frequent urination, and urgency during urination, as well as difficulty urinating. Chronic urethritis causes less urethral secretions, urethral itching, and urination irritation, which are not as prominent as in the acute stage, and some patients may have no symptoms.

So, what to do about urethral itching?

Urinary tract infection, also known as urinary infection, refers to urinary tract inflammation caused by the growth and reproduction of pathogens in the urinary tract, often accompanied by symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, pain, chills, fever, and back pain. Clinical data show that about half of men over 35 years old have been troubled by urinary tract infection. Urinary infection is prone to recurrence, mainly due to incomplete treatment. Many people stop taking medicine as soon as the symptoms disappear. On the surface, it seems to be cured, but in fact a small amount of bacteria continue to reproduce in the urethra. After the treatment is stopped, it is easy to cause recurrence, and it can develop into a chronic urinary tract infection over time.

In addition, people with urinary incontinence who have underlying diseases such as diabetes, urinary stones, urethral obstruction, prostatic hypertrophy, long-term use of immunosuppressants, and some people with unclean sexual contact will have reduced resistance and may also cause urinary incontinence to recur.

To prevent urinary tract infection, you should drink plenty of water and not hold your urine, so that "toxins" can be excreted through urine and bacteria can be avoided as much as possible; it is best not to smoke, eat less spicy and sour food, and exercise more; people who need to sit for a long time due to work should wear loose clothes, preferably cotton underwear, not too tight, and pay attention to personal hygiene. In addition, diseases that easily cause urinary tract infection should be actively treated. Once symptoms related to urinary tract infection appear, go to a regular hospital for treatment in time. It is especially important to emphasize that treatment must be timely, sufficient, and sufficient, and you must not "follow your feelings" and stop taking the medicine at will.
