What are the early symptoms of gonorrhea

When many people learn that they have gonorrhea, their first reaction is extreme fear. Although the general public has some knowledge about gonorrhea and has a certain degree of understanding of its harmfulness, they still feel at a loss when it happens to them. Gonorrhea is accompanied by some regular symptoms in the early stages, and everyone should tell the doctor all the symptoms.

What symptoms can gonorrhea cause?

Gonorrhea is a common transmitted disease that is very harmful to patients. The symptoms of gonorrhea can help people detect the disease in time, so people must seek timely treatment when they find symptoms of gonorrhea.

In men, it is more common to occur in the coronal sulcus, glans penis, foreskin, frenulum, and urethral orifice. A few cases are seen in the penis body. In homosexuals, it can occur in the perianal area and rectum. But it is rarely seen in the scrotum. It is especially likely to occur in people with chronic gonorrhea and prepuce that is too long. In addition to the above parts, other parts of the human body may also become ill, such as the mouth, armpits, navel, between the toes, etc.

The warts in the early stage of gonorrhea are relatively tender. When they first appear, they are small and light red or light gray. Then they gradually expand and increase in number, and the color gradually deepens to pink, brown, bright red, and some are white or even black. The surface of warts is generally moist and soft, and they bleed easily when touched.

Gonorrhea first appears as a few tiny pink papules, which gradually increase in size and number. Usually there is no special feeling, the surface is uneven, moist and soft, and appears nipple-like, mushroom-like, or fused into large cauliflower-like protrusions, red or dirty red. The root often has a stalk, which is prone to erosion and exudation, and bleeds easily when touched. The cracks in the skin lesions often contain turbid serous fluid or purulent secretions, which emit a foul odor and are often followed by bacterial infection due to scratching.

As time goes by, various secretions, leucorrhea, dirt or bleeding will be accumulated in the gaps, causing them to appear like blood scabs or thick juice, which often has a foul odor. In a few warts, the keratin is thickened and the surface may become hard. Warts of varying sizes and shapes may appear due to differences in the type of HPV that causes gonorrhea, the duration of infection, the individual, gender, and location of the infected person, etc.

Some female patients grow a patch of hairy spines or many protrusions from the vulva to the vagina, cervix, etc., like many cockscombs. Gonorrhea that occurs in the rectum can cause tenesmus. Due to local moisture and constant stimulation, the warts grow rapidly and become huge gonorrhea. They can penetrate deep into the urethra and produce many fistulas leading to the urethra, or turn into cancer after several years.

What symptoms can gonorrhea bring? The above is a detailed introduction. I hope everyone can understand the symptoms of gonorrhea. Gonorrhea can occur in anyone, and its symptoms are different in women and men. Therefore, everyone should carefully observe changes in their own bodies and seek timely treatment once symptoms of gonorrhea are found.
