05 Feb, 2025 12:24 PM
Urethritis is the inflammation of the urethra—the tube carrying urine out of the body. It often results from bacterial or viral infections, especially sexually transmitted infections (STIs) like gonorrhea or chlamydia. In some cases, irritation from soaps or spermicides can also trigger urethritis.
Common Symptoms
• Painful or burning urination
• Frequent or urgent need to urinate
• Discharge from the urethra
• Itching or discomfort in the genital area
If left untreated, urethritis can lead to bladder or kidney infections. Diagnosis typically involves a physical exam plus urine or swab tests. Treatment may include antibiotics or antiviral medications, depending on the cause. Preventive measures include safe sexual practices, good hygiene, and avoiding irritants.
If you suspect urethritis, seek prompt medical attention. For expert evaluation and management, visit Dr. Onyango Oluoch or call him on 0721850826.
