What is ureaplasma
The term ureaplasma may sound very unfamiliar to everyone, and perhaps everyone has occasionally heard of mycoplasma, but with the addition of the word urea, it feels more profound. So, today I will tell you about ureaplasma, first of all, let's answer what is ureaplasma?
Mycoplasma infection is a type of venereal disease and is a pathogenic microorganism that lies somewhere between bacteria and viruses. After infection, it mainly causes respiratory and genitourinary tract diseases, such as pneumonia, non-gonococcal urethritis,Cervicitis、vaginitisetc., and even cause infertility.
Chlamydia and mycoplasma are the normal flora in many parts of our body, such as eyes, nostrils, anus, mouth, vagina and other places, as long as it is not too large to cause symptoms (itching, pain, unbearable swelling, fever, etc.), it cannot be regarded as a disease, let alone treated, if a large amount of antibiotics cause dysbiosis but become a pathology. However, if the ratio exceeds the normal and causes itching, pain, unbearable swelling, fever, etc., it is an inflammation of chlamydia and mycoplasma, and treatment is required. Therefore, a positive test for chlamydia and mycoplasma alone is mostly not pathological, but can only indicate that the vagina is normal.
The symptoms of mycoplasma infection in men are as follows: 1. Urethral discomfort: the symptoms are relatively mild, showing intraurethral discomfort, tingling and burning sensation, accompanied by varying degrees of urgency and frequency, and stinging pain during urination, especially when the urine is more concentrated. 2. Abnormal discharge: the urethral opening is mildly red and swollen, the secretion is thin, the amount is small, it is serous or purulent, and the urethra needs to be squeezed hard to see the secretion overflowing, and there is often a small amount of mucous discharge at the urethral opening in the morning or only a scab seal, or a dirty crotch.3. Pain: Patients with prostate infection in the subacute stage of mycoplasma infection often have perineal pain, backache, discomfort on the medial side of the thigh, or a tingling sensation that radiates from the perineum to the medial thigh when doing levator anal movements.
I believe that after reading the above explanation, you also have a certain understanding of ureaplasma. Of course, it can also be seen from the above that the pathogenesis of mycoplasma infection is varied. Therefore, it is finally recommended that if you find any abnormalities in yourself, it is best to choose to go to the hospital in time to receive regular treatment, so as to achieve early detection and early treatment.
