A 30 year old male, married, taxi driver came to the clinic complaining of pain with urination and noticeable increase in frequency of 3 days duration. He also noted a yellowish green copious penile discharge that often leaves stain in his underwear. He also said that he had a slight fever and took Paracetamol 500mg which relieved the symptom. On further prodding , the patient volunteered that he had unprotected sex with a sex worker in a bar in Pasay City a week prior to consultation.
History,laboratory and physical examination points to a diagnosis of Urethritis, most probably Gonococcal(Tulo),Gonorrhea, in etiology. Patient was given Azythromycin 1gm as a single dose together with Cefixime 200mg, 2 tablets as single dose. Patient was also advised to increase fluid intake and to practice safe sex in the future.
Gonococcal Urethritis, Tulo, is a sexually transmitted disease with an incubation period of 2-7 days, that causes urinary symptoms like frequency,urgency and dysuria.Almost always there is a copious ,green, yellow urethral discharge that often leaves a mark in the underwear thus the local term "Tulo" or drip . The penile opening or meatus and the anterior urethra may also be inflammed thus a patient may experience a burning sensation with the passage of urine.
Gonorrhea also called the clap, which is caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae, is an important public health problem and is the most common reportable infectious disease. Gonorrhea is most frequently spread during sexual contact. The most common local complication of gonorrhea in men is Epididymitis which causes unilateral testticular pain and swelling, and epididymal tenderness. Urethral dischage may or may not be present.

Im suffering from tulo since last week. I went to the clinic 3days after i realized that i have the infection and it was really embarassing. The doctor prescribed doxycycline 2x a day for 7 days. The discharge was reduced but still there is so i went back 6 days later for a follow up, i said that there is still discharge when the doctor said there should not be any by now. She then recommended for me to take the shot. They injected ceftriaxone rocephin into me. After 24hrs, so far i didn't see any stains in my undies and also no matter how i squeeze my penis, there is no more discharge and no more pain when i pee. I hope this is a start of my recovery, im still taking the antibiotics ciprofloxacin 2x a day for 7 days.

Chronic Urethritis Treatment includes antibiotics or other medications to kill the infection. Sex partners should be treated as well. It is imperative to refraining from sexual activity until the treatment is completed because infections can remain active even after your symptoms have disappeared.
