What to do if you suspect an STD or have an STD

First, before the diagnosis should not be indiscriminately referred to a doctor Some people have had extramarital sexual contact or unclean sexual contact because of different circumstances and occasions, after the contact someone feels unwell and clinical symptoms appear; some people, although there are no symptoms, but the heart is uneasy, the more you think about the more you are afraid, the more you are afraid of getting sick. This disease is not the same as the flu, limited to social opinion, work environment, family relations and other factors, they are reluctant to say, and even unwilling to go to the regular hospital. This state of mind makes some people take advantage of the loopholes, we pay attention to the telephone pole stickers “special treatment of sexually transmitted diseases”, toilet stickers “family cure sexually transmitted diseases”, some publications and newspapers also published such ads. The government has explicitly stated that units without diagnostic and testing conditions and professionals are not allowed to treat STDs indiscriminately. However, some advertisements have been changed to “urinary tract infection”, “male”, “female”, and the content describes all the symptoms of STDs, and the next step is to pay money for a diagnosis once you ask a test. The next step is to pay money, hundreds or even thousands of dollars are cheated. For example, in the acute stage of gonorrhea, the condition will be lighter with some antibiotics, and it will be difficult to culture gonorrhea in the secretion, but the disease is not completely cured, which makes the next step of diagnosis and treatment very difficult. This is also true for other diseases such as syphilis and non-gonococcal urethritis. Therefore, if you suspect that you have a disease, you must go to a hospital that has been inspected and qualified by the municipal health bureau for examination and treatment. The first step is to confirm whether there is a disease, and the second step is to determine what the disease is. Second, once confirmed, should be treated urgently STDs currently include at least 20 kinds of diseases, some of which have symptoms, some diseases in a certain period of time without symptoms; some diseases infected with a short time to test what is the disease, some diseases 1 month, months or even years to determine what is the disease, so it is very important to determine the diagnosis. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, treatment should be taken urgently, such as acute gonorrhea, after the culture of gonorrhea, at the same time, it will be possible to know what drugs are most effective for this disease. The most sensitive drug can cure the disease in 1 time or maximum 2 to 3 days. Some advertising doctors, however, use penicillin when they see gonorrhea, not knowing that more than 50% of gonorrhea is now resistant to penicillin, resulting in money spent and delayed, making gonorrhea chronic. Chlamydia and mycoplasma infections are even more so. In addition, the drugs used are not appropriate, and the treatment is delayed. Syphilis disease due to delayed treatment, after a long time can even cause the syphilis reaction in the blood can not subside for life, turned into visceral syphilis, bringing difficulties to the treatment. Therefore, the patient to seize the regular treatment, the majority of STDs can be completely cured. Third, double infection requires continuous treatment An unclean sexual contact can be infected with an STD, but also with two or three STDs. Some gonorrhea patients spend a lot of money, “gonorrheal”, “bacteria”, “penicillin” injection a lot, is the symptoms of urethritis does not improve, and finally after the culture check turned out to be After the culture test, it turned out to be non-gonococcal urethritis and gonorrhea infection at the same time. If you change to oral medicine, you can be cured in 10 days or so. Some so-called doctors heard that the diagnosis of non-gonococcal urethritis in a large hospital, the long-term application of a large number of antibiotics to patients, so that months do not heal, the more serious treatment, the result is a non-gonococcal urethritis and fungal dual infection, the more antibiotics, the more serious fungal disease, and stop the use of antibiotics, change to antifungal drugs, 7 days can be cured. Therefore, to determine the dual infection of sexually transmitted diseases is also the key to treatment, never what place will diagnose the disease, patients must pay attention. Fourth, the couple or sex partners must be treated at the same time This is very important. Many patients think that as long as the disease after the two sides do not have contact, it will not be transmitted to each other, this understanding is wrong. In fact, patients in the onset of medical treatment, couples, sexual partners have been infected with each other (infected not necessarily have symptoms); if one party treatment, during treatment constantly have sex with the other party, each other constantly infected, equal to no treatment, which is one of the important reasons why many patients with STDs are always cured, especially gonorrhea and non-gonococcal urethritis, many women have no symptoms at all, is mistaken for no disease, through its contact and will not be treated. By contacting them, the disease is transmitted to each other. Therefore, if one party has the disease, both husband and wife and sexual partners must be examined in detail and treated at the same time, so that both parties can be completely cured. Lastly, I would like to emphasize that many STDs are not difficult to treat, but you must go to a regular hospital to avoid getting heavier and heavier, which will leave you with a lifelong regret.
