Gonorrhea, You Suspect You Have It

An infection of the mucosa, Neisseria gonorrhoeae grow in the human urinary tract, cervix, uterus and the wall of the fallopian tubes, the rectal mucosa, the mucosa of the pharynx and conjunctiva.

The infection is usually acquired through some type of sexual contact. A person with gonorrhea should be suspected if they have had unprotected sex and if you're a man, have a rectal or urethral purulent discharge. Women may have no symptoms initially, but may have thick vaginal discharge, pelvic pain and rectal pain / unloading. Because the infection is related symptomatic women may develop an infection of the pelvic organs called pelvic inflammatory disease or PID. PID is a major cause of infertility in women. Men and women may have throat infections ranging from mild discomfort to severe exudative pharyngitis. The throat infections are much more resistant to therapy.

When a suspect patient with STDs, the detection of various infectious diseases such as gonorrhea take place. The slower but more accurate for gonorrhea is doing a bacterial culture. Fluid and mucus were obtained on a sample from the site of infection. This material is transferred to a special environment that enhances the growth of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. It takes several days until the bacteria can be identified. More rapid tests that detect bacterial DNA can be overnight. This evidence can be collected with a swab or urine if the genital tract is involved.

Antibiotic resistance has become a big problem with many bacteria, including N. gonorrhoeae. Years ago a small dose of penicillin injection was sufficient. As the need for increasing doses of penicillin increased, other oral medications are used. N. gonorrhoeae often occurs with other sexually transmitted diseases, these should be taken into account also. Recently, the CDC has issued warnings that strains of N. resistant to oral therapy and patients should be given parenterally gonorrhoeae (injection). Usually, a generic drug called ceftriaxone, or ceftriaxone recommended a potential agent for other oral infections.
