Nowadays, people pay great attention to the health of the urethral opening. As the weather becomes hotter and hotter, it is the summer season. In this season, we need to pay attention to some diseases of the urethral opening. For example, many people are prone to continuous dripping at the urethral opening, and there will be symptoms of redness, swelling and itching. The most common symptom is the flow of transparent liquid from the urethral opening, which is some sticky transparent substance. At this time, the patient should judge whether his body will have other symptoms, and go to the hospital for detailed examination based on these problems. In this case, you can take a urine sediment to see if the floating fibers are some urate crystals that have precipitated. Otherwise, you can further perform a cystoscopy. However, if these basic checks are fine at the moment, it may not be a big problem. Urinalysis shows an increase in white blood cell count or pyuria, accompanied by an increase in red blood cells, and a few cases show gross hematuria. The three-cup urine test shows a large number of pus cells and red blood cells in the first cup, while the second and third cups are basically normal. The number of bacteria in first-stream urine cell culture is significantly higher than that in midstream urine. In a smear examination of urethral or vaginal secretions, intracellular or extracellular gonococci may be seen in gonococcal urethritis. Nonspecific urethritis can be cultured with secretions or anterior urethral swabs, and a large number of bacteria may grow. If no bacteria are found in secretion smears and cultures, there is a possibility of mycoplasma or chlamydia infection, and special methods of culture or PCR examination can be performed. Chronic urethritis requires urethrocystoscopy to clarify the cause of the disease. Sometimes a metal urethral probe can be used to test whether there is stricture in the urethra. Urethral angiography can be performed when necessary. In the acute phase, the use of instruments for examination in the urethra should be avoided. |
