Urethritis

Description:

The urethritis is an infectious disease, its emergence is always connected with the infectious agent - bacteria, viruses, mushrooms, etc.

Urethritis symptoms:

Symptoms of an urethritis is first of all burning, pain and gripes at an urination, and allocations from an urethra. Rather plentiful allocations, as a rule, come from an urethra in the mornings and have a grayish-yellow shade at a gonorrheal urethritis, light and whitish at a mecotic urethritis, purulent at a bacterial urethritis. At men the irritation, reddening and adhesion of sponges of an urethra (urethra) is often observed. Unpleasant feelings as we already spoke above, at the first stages of a disease can be insignificant, but at the same time inflammatory processes in an urethra proceed rather actively and can have the ascending character – the inflammation can come to other generative organs of men and women. Therefore, even at the minimum symptoms, it is necessary to pay attention discomfort at an urination and to consult with the doctor. The started urethritis is followed by crotch pain, in pubic area, temperature increase, weaknesses and a considerable aggravation of symptoms of the patient. At the wrong treatment inflammatory process passes to the next bodies and fabrics, there can be an urethra stricture – narrowing or full commissure of a gleam of an urethra. It is shown by strengthening of an urodynia and a "weak" stream of urine.

Urethritis reasons:

Depending on an etiology of an uretrita are divided into two groups: specific and nonspecific uretrita. Specific uretrita are always caused by the sexually transmitted infection (which is not found at healthy people) - gonokokky, a chlamydia, a trichomonad, a mycoplasma, an ureaplasma, seldom gardnerelly. These infections can be a little, they can be present together with other bacteria, viruses, mushrooms, but if they are, then the urethritis is considered specific. Nonspecific uretrita are caused by opportunistic microflora - streptococci, stafilokokka, colibacilli, Proteus, fungi, etc. There is no basic difference in manifestations, development of a disease and its treatment between a specific and nonspecific urethritis. The difference between them consists only in one - in need to inspect and treat all partners of the patient if the sexually transmitted infection is found.
The contributing factors for development of an urethritis:
    * overcooling - both single, and constant
    * penis injury
    * an urolithiasis – a stone or sand, passing through an urethra, can injure its walls and cause development of an urethritis
    * heavy exercise stress
    * irregular sex life, a large number of sexual partners and the increased sexual activity
    * errors in a diet - consumption acute, acid, salty, marinated, etc. in large numbers, alcohol. All these substances get to urine, and, passing on uric ways, cause irritation of their wall. It can lead to emergence of an inflammation or to its progressing
    * insufficient use of water, irregular mode of urinations. At an urination there is a washing off of bacteria from a bladder wall, it is one of mechanisms of protection of an organism against an urethritis. If the break between urinations makes several hours, the risk of development of a disease increases
    * chronic inflammatory diseases of an organism.
    * medical operations and manipulations - a smear fence, bladder catheterization, etc.

Treatment of the Urethritis:

Treatment of an urethritis consists not in elimination of the unpleasant symptoms of an urethritis caused by an infection at all. Simple to save the patient from unpleasant feelings to any specialist. More important and responsible point in treatment of an urethritis is diagnosis and treatment of a cause of illness.
The first what there begins the doctor at suspicion on an urethritis with - it is clarification of the reason of an urethritis. Careful diagnosis of an infestant is carried out. For effective treatment of an urethritis and the correct selection of medicines the doctor needs to know precisely what microorganisms caused an inflammation in an urethra – a sexually transmitted infection or opportunistic microflora. Various laboratory researches (a smear, PTsR, DNA diagnosis) are for this purpose used. Besides to the doctor can be it will be required to carry out ultrasonography of bodies of a small pelvis to estimate a condition of a bladder, a prostate, bodies of a scrotum. On the basis of the received results of inspection the doctor appoints this or that treatment.
Treatment of an urethritis will be inefficient if not to eliminate the infection guilty of an urethra inflammation. Actually treatment of an urethritis is a treatment of inflammatory diseases – clamidiosis, gonorrhea, the milkwoman, trichomoniasis, a cytomegalovirus, etc. diseases. Destroy causative organisms by means of various medicines: antibiotics, antifungal and antiviral drugs. Treatment of inflammatory diseases is carried out at the same time at both sexual partners. As the infection easily passes from one person to another at sexual intercourse, without joint treatment any, even the most effective remedies of treatment of an urethritis will not bring any benefit.
There is no basic difference in treatment of a nonspecific urethritis and specific. Division of an urethritis according to infestants is important to the doctor to pick up the necessary medicines and to resolve an issue of need of treatment of the sexual partner. Practically all diseases of the sexual sphere to which also the urethritis belongs occur against the background of disturbance of blood circulation in a small basin. At a combination of cystitis and an urethritis treatment has to be complex, with compulsory physiotherapeutic procedures, instillations of medicinal substances in an urethra and a bladder. During treatment of an urethritis keep to a diet: do not eat spicy, salty food and any alcoholic beverages. Drink more liquid. After passing of all course of treatment provided that all symptoms and signs of an urethritis disappeared, the doctor will need to carry out check analyses to be convinced that the infection is destroyed completely.
Remember that to neglect treatment of an urethritis, not to implement the recommendation of the doctor or it is dangerous to make attempts of self-treatment of an urethritis for your health. Complications of an acute urethritis can become:
* chronic urethritis
* urethra strictures
* chronic prostatitis
* epididymite
* infertility.
