How long can you live with gonorrhea?

  Gonorrhea is an acute inflammatory disease of the genitourinary system caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection, which usually does not affect the life expectancy of patients.  Gonorrhea is caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection and is manifested as purulent inflammation of the mucous membrane of the genitourinary system. In men, the disease is mainly manifested as urethritis, with symptoms such as frequent, urgent and painful urination, and examination may reveal redness and swelling of the urethral orifice and a large amount of yellow purulent discharge. The disease is mainly transmitted through sexual contact and is highly contagious, but it does not affect the patient’s life expectancy. If improper treatment leads to the further development and spread of infection, it can easily cause prostatitis and vesiculitis, and women can cause pelvic inflammatory disease, increasing the difficulty of treatment and patient suffering, but the survival time of patients is no different from normal people.  Patients with gonorrhea should be actively given antibiotic treatment, disinfect contaminated underwear and other supplies, pay attention to personal hygiene, keep the vulva clean and dry, rest properly, and avoid spicy and stimulating foods.
