Diagnostics and treatment of urethritis
A comprehensive approach to identifying the causes of urethral inflammation and developing an effective treatment plan.
Urethritis is an inflammation of the urethra, which can be caused by bacterial, viral, fungal infections or chemical irritation. Common symptoms of urethritis include burning, itching and pain when urinating, urethral discharge, and discomfort in the genital area.
Urethritis treatment depends on the exact cause of the problem. In case of bacterial urethritis, the treatment is based on antibiotics. For viral or fungal infections, antiviral and antifungal drugs are used.
Following the treatment, it is important to maintain genital hygiene, avoid hypothermia and keep a healthy lifestyle. Treatment usually takes a few days to a week, but chronic urethritis may require longer rehabilitation with supportive therapy.
Consultation with a urologist for medical history and examination. Common urine test to detect signs of inflammation. Bacteriological urine culture to determine the infectious agent. STI tests. Ultrasound of the urinary tract (if necessary).
The patient should abstain from sexual intercourse for 24-48 hours before the test and maintain genital hygiene. The urologist will ascertain the symptoms and history of the disease, as well as examine the genitals and urethra during the diagnostics. Urine and urethral swabs are tested for bacteriological examination and PCR (polymerase chain reaction) to confirm the diagnosis and identify the infectious agent.
Antibiotics, antiviral or antifungal drugs are prescribed based on the identified infectious agent. The course of treatment and type of medication depends on the infection and the severity of the disease. Comprehensive treatment may include physiotherapy procedures such as UHF therapy, magnet therapy and laser therapy.
