Causes of Urethritis
Symptoms of Urethritis
Treatments of Urethritis
There are many types of urethritis and only some do requiremedical care. For
example, urethritis arising from the use of a new soap or lotion does not need
any medical attention. However, if the same occurs after a medical procedure,
medical care is required.
Though urethritis in itself rarely requires immediate treatment, some of its
symptoms may indicate that the infection has gone beyond the urinary tract. If
any foreign object has been lodged into the urethra or theurinary tract,
immediate medical attention is required. Such a situation can create an
infection.
There are some medical tests that are used todiagnose urethritis. These tests
include urine test, rectal test, blood Sample, swab from the urethra.
