A few misconceptions about STDs

People who have a history of unclean sexual intercourse who find themselves with urinary, genital discomfort or general discomfort, or a variety of skin lesions in the genital area, are apt to wonder if they have an STD, and this fear is not unreasonable and should go to a doctor for treatment. Even if there is no discomfort, as long as there is a suspicious medical history, you can regularly find a doctor for the appropriate examination. Some patients only know that syphilis and gonorrhea are venereal diseases but do not know that the definition of venereal disease is very broad, is the general term for a variety of sexual behavior, sexual contact closely related to infectious diseases. In addition to syphilis, gonorrhea, soft chancre and venereal lymphogranuloma, inguinal granuloma and other familiar STDs, there are also condyloma acuminata, AIDS, genital herpes, genital candidiasis, infectious molluscum contagiosum, pubic lice disease, non-gonococcal urethritis, etc. can be transmitted through sexual contact. The second misconception, only to treat themselves, not sex partners Some STD patients in the cure, no longer have an affair, and many times relapse, because they are cured, not let the spouse treatment, the results through the couple’s sex life and many times suffer from the same disease. Therefore, once patients know they have a sexually transmitted disease, for the safety of themselves and their families, they should tell their spouses openly and honestly, and at the same time to the hospital for examination and treatment. The third misconception is that some patients think that STD is a terminal disease, in fact, STD is not an incurable disease, as long as active treatment, is able to be cured. Venereal disease pathogens are actually very vulnerable. For example, syphilis spirochetes will die quickly in a dry environment or in soapy water or alcohol. Be confident in the cure. The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are getting into. The actual fact is that you will be able to get a lot more than just a few of the most popular and popular items. The actual fact is that STD is not as terrible as you think, and STD is not a terminal disease. If you understand STD correctly and treat it with the right attitude, you will not be so afraid of STD. The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are getting into. The reason is that there are many kinds of STDs, and the types of pathogens that cause STDs are different. As the pathogens are different, the treatment methods are also different, such as syphilis with penicillin treatment, gonorrhea is mainly treated with cephalosporin antibiotics. As for the “cure”, it depends on the different types of diseases, non-resistant gonorrhea and syphilis, after regular and systematic treatment can achieve a complete cure, and for viral STDs such as condyloma acuminata and genital herpes, because at present only interfere with the synthesis of virus replication drugs and no virus killing drugs, so these two diseases are prone to relapse The actual fact is that you will be able to get a lot more than just a few of the most popular and most popular ones. Therefore, once the STD, do not have the luxury of seeing a doctor, a shot on the line, but should go to the regular hospital for targeted systemic treatment, and after treatment, in accordance with medical advice, regular follow-up, and check the pathogens to confirm the efficacy, modify the treatment plan. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who have been in the marketplace for a long time. The patient felt that the previous urethral pain and discomfort still existed, for this reason, the transfer to several hospitals and small clinics, has injected a variety of antibiotics and other drugs, costing more than 100,000 yuan, but still do not feel cured, the whole day depressed, and accompanied by headaches and insomnia, palpitations and weakness, loss of appetite, after the expert consultation confirmed the diagnosis of STD phobia. They often exaggerate their normal physiological reactions or minor discomfort and attribute it to the STD they had before, trying to get confirmation, hoping to get the doctor’s approval and treatment, while being skeptical or rejecting the doctor’s explanation and the reliability of the lab results.
