Can gonorrhea come back?

Whether or not gonorrhea recurs is mainly related to whether or not the treatment is thorough. If gonorrhea can be completely cured through standardized treatment and is not re-infected, it generally will not recur; if the treatment is not complete, it may recur. Gonorrhea is a purulent inflammatory infectious disease caused by Neisseria gonorrhea infection. If the patient is treated in a timely manner and pays attention to self-protection after he is cured, and is not infected twice, the disease will not recur under normal circumstances. If the patient is not completely cured due to insufficient dosage of medication during the treatment period, unclean sex, etc., or is exposed to Neisseria gonorrhoeae through other means, the disease may recur, thus requiring re-treatment. Gonorrhea patients need to develop good living habits, clean themselves, follow the doctor’s instructions to use the full dose of medication, and regular follow-up.
