Non-gonococcal urethritis mainly refers to urethritis caused by infection by pathogens other than gonococcus, and can be diagnosed by physical examination and laboratory tests.
1. Physical examination: different parts of the body should be examined according to gender. For male patients, observe whether the urethral orifice shows secretion or redness, and palpate the scrotum to see whether it is abnormal; for female patients, observe whether the urethral orifice is abnormal, and conduct gynecological examination to determine whether it involves the cervix and other parts of the body.
2. Laboratory examination: urine sediment examination, secretion smear examination, secretion culture examination, immunofluorescence antibody examination and other methods can be used to clearly examine whether there are pathogens in the specimen, and to understand the type of pathogens in time, so as to carry out subsequent diagnosis and treatment.
If symptoms related to non-gonococcal urethritis appear, such as increased urethral discharge, obstruction of urination, etc., it is necessary to go to the hospital in time to complete the examination, make a clear diagnosis, and carry out targeted treatment as soon as possible.
