Diagnosis of urethritis is not difficult, but attention should be paid to the diagnosis and treatment of the primary disease and related diseases. Male patients should have three cups of test if they have no urethral secretions (ie, anterior urethritis, first cup of urine turbidity, a large number of pus cells, white blood cells, 2nd and 3rd cups clear. Posterior urethritis, 1st and 3rd cups are turbid, there are a lot of Pus cells, white blood cells, the second cup is clear). In the acute phase of the urethra, avoid using equipment examination. Chronic urethritis requires a urethral cystoscopy to determine the cause of the disease. Metal urethral strips can sometimes be used to test for stenosis in the urethra and urethrography if necessary.
