Urethral itching after ejaculation?

Sexual intercourse can not only promote the relationship between husband and wife, but also allow the body to get a short relaxation. Everyone knows that men will ejaculate when they reach climax during sexual intercourse. Under normal circumstances, men will not feel any discomfort in their bodies after ejaculation. However, some men will experience urethral itching after ejaculation, which is generally caused by urethritis. We usually eat less spicy and irritating foods and keep the local area clean.

Symptoms of urethritis in men

1. Urethral itching: After the onset of urethritis, there is secretion, which will make patients feel urethral itching in the long run. In chronic urethritis, urethral secretions are reduced, and there is only itching or a crawling sensation. Urinary irritation syndrome is not as obvious as the acute phase symptoms, and some patients will not experience these symptoms.

2. Abnormal urination: Patients with urethritis will experience symptoms such as urinary pain, urgency, frequency, and turbid urine. The frequency of urination will also increase. When urinating, they will feel a burning sensation and pain in the urethra. Sometimes the pain symptoms will radiate to the lower abdomen or perineum. Some patients have turbid urine and sometimes have hematuria.

3. There is secretion in the urethra: People with urethritis will have secretion in the urethra. In the early stage of the disease, the secretion is less, thin, mucous or mucopurulent. If you do not urinate for a long time, a small amount of thin secretions will overflow from the urethra. Sometimes the only manifestation is a scab blocking the urethra or staining underwear in the morning.

Don’t think that these are normal phenomena. They are often alarms sent by our bodies. We must be vigilant and seek early examination and treatment.

The dangers of male urethritis

1. Male urethritis can cause infertility

Male urethritis can cause male infertility, mainly because the inflammation causes urethral stenosis and obstruction of the urethral opening. If it affects the vas deferens, epididymis, etc., it can lead to fibrosis, deformation, and scar formation, causing obstruction of the vas deferens. When it is complicated by inflammation of the epididymis, seminal vesicles, prostate, etc., it can affect the quality of semen and reduce the survival rate and motility of sperm.

2. Male urethritis induces arthritis

Male urethritis can induce sterile arthritis. Reactive arthritis is sterile arthritis induced after urethritis and cervicitis, such as reactive arthritis after non-gonococcal urethritis and reactive arthritis after bacterial diarrhea. In addition, mycoplasma, spirochete, Brucella, Chlamydia pneumoniae, etc. can also induce reactive arthritis.

The characteristic of reactive arthritis is that it usually occurs in the large joints of the patient's hands and feet, small joints are generally not affected, and it does not occur symmetrically. There is currently no effective prevention method for this disease, but the disease is very good after recovery and there are no dietary taboos. Therefore, once the disease occurs, patients should go to a regular hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
