Is there some body could explain to me what gonorrhoea is? and how to treat that sickness.? thx
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Gonorrhea: Gonorrhea is a bacterial infection spread from infected tissues during a sexual encounter. This bacteria is easily transferred from person to person (if they are infected) during sexual activity. This infection is getting more and more difficult to treat and there is now a drug resistant version of gonorrhea spreading around the world. If you have any more questions please do not hesitate.
