Patient information: Age: 50 Gender: Female
The difference between gonorrhea and urinary tract infection It’s still relatively large.
The main difference between urinary tract infection and gonorrhea is that the pathogenic bacteria are different, the prognosis is different and urinary tract infection is not contagious, and gonorrhea can be transmitted through sex. The most common pathogen causing urinary tract infections is Escherichia coli. This disease can clinically cause frequent urination, urgency, dysuria, and related symptoms such as high fever, chills, and low back pain. Generally speaking, it can be treated with regular antibiotics. It can be cured, and the bacteria will not be contagious; and gonorrhea can be contagious.
Pay attention to food hygiene. The immune system of gonorrhea patients is relatively poor, so if you eat unclean raw food or undercooked food, it is easy to cause diarrhea and other diseases. Eat small and frequent meals, or they will easily lead to indigestion.
