doctor says that i've got urethritis? but i never had sex? how is this possible?

Question

What's a good way to control urethritis until I can go to a doctor?

Answer 1

Urethritis: Thank you for clarifying this. It is unusual for a male to get a bladder, urethral, or other urinary tract infection without sexual activity. But it can happen. Please ignore my previous answer to your other question. Sometimes the bacteria that live in our colon can get into and infect the urethra. Take your medications. You should get better.

Answer 2

Unlikely: While one has antibodies for life after being exposed to the virus that causes mono. The virus should no longer be causing a problem.

Answer 3

Don't worry about it: Mono is caused by ebv virus, and a great many people already have the virus by the time they reach adulthood. Kids who catch ebv when young often get a milder, shorter illness (they don't remember ever having mono). There is no way to tell if one will get mono from sharing a single meal, 5 meals, or 50 meals. Ebv is generally considered a part of life. People don't spend time trying to avoid it.

Answer 4

Lowered function: While sexual potential can carry through into quite older age, the erectile capacity and ejacualate volume decrease with age. Some lose desire which is entirely psychological. Note the many products on the market for this and the destruction of endangered animals for this (rhino horns, bear gall bladder stones, etc.).

Answer 5

Get tested: There are many possible causes of unexplained fever ranging from infection, autoimmune diseases, even certain cancers. Please get tested by a doctor soon.

Answer 6

It's possible but...: Realize that a person can have a seizure for many reasons. Having a seizure does not have to be related to his medication, his diet, his activities, etc...

Answer 7

See below: It is always possible to have an increased risk of seizure when reducing the amount of barbiturate used from a prior dose.

Answer 8

More info: "chicken bumps" are more commonly seen on the arms and legs and do well with cod liver oil (orally). On the face...Depends on the age. If a newborn is one thing. Older children i would want to see the rash before offering suggestions. In general there is a great cream..Called schmoove. Can be ordered from maker.
