HERBAL REMEDIES FOR GONORRHEA IN YORUBA HERBAL MEDICINE BY BABALAWO OBANIFA-Obanifa extreme documentaries (vol 4)
I
have had volume one to three of work of this nature documenting varieties of
herbal formula available in Yoruba herbal medicine for treatment of Gonorrhea
which is known as Atosi in Yoruba herbal medicine parlance. This is
volume four(4) of such work. As in my previous documentaries this work will not
jump into documentations of various herbal formula that will be made available in this series without first exploring the medical information
provide by trained health practitioners
on this disease under discussions. It is however instructive that information
made available in this work should not be regarded as substitute to the service
of qualified trained health practitioners where the service of one is required.
The work of Dale
Kiefer and Justin Sarachik Medically reviewed
by Graham Rogers, MD on
June 23, 2016 and published on www.heathline.com
will be our guiding compass in this work
to understands what we is Gonorrhea, mode of treatment and prevention. The
concluding part of this work will document varieties of herbal remedies available
in volume 4 for the treatment of Gonorrhea. According to Dale Kiefer and Justin
Sarachik;Gonorrhea is a sexually
transmitted disease (STD). It’s caused by infection with the bacterium Neisseria
gonorrhoeae. It tends to infect warm, moist areas of the body, including
the:
- urethra (the tube that drains urine from the urinary bladder)
- eyes
- throat
- vagina
- anus
- female reproductive tract (the fallopian tubes, cervix, and uterus)
Gonorrhea
passes from person to person through unprotected
oral, anal, or vaginal sex. People with numerous sexual partners or those who
don’t use a condom are at greatest risk of infection. The best protections
against infection are abstinence, monogamy (sex with only one partner), and proper
condom usage. Behaviors that make a person more likely to engage in
unprotected sex also increase the likelihood of infection. These behaviors
include alcohol
abuse and illegal drug
abuse, particularly intravenous drug use.
Symptoms
usually occur within two to 14 days after exposure. However, some people
infected with gonorrhea never develop noticeable symptoms. It’s important to
remember that a person with gonorrhea who doesn’t have symptoms, also called a
nonsymptomatic carrier, is still contagious. A person is more likely to spread
the infection to other partners when they don’t have noticeable symptoms.
Symptoms in men
Men
may not develop noticeable symptoms for several weeks. Some men may never
develop symptoms.
Typically,
the infection begins to show symptoms a week after its transmission. The first
noticeable symptom in men is often a burning or painful sensation
during urination. As it progresses, other symptoms may include:
- greater frequency or urgency of urination
- a pus-like discharge (or drip) from the penis (white, yellow, beige, or greenish)
- swelling or redness at the opening of the penis
- swelling or pain in the testicles
- a persistent sore throat
The
infection will stay in the body for a few weeks after the symptoms have been
treated. In rare instances, gonorrhea can continue to cause damage to the body,
specifically the urethra and testicles. Pain may also spread to the rectum.
Symptoms in women
Many
women
don’t develop any overt symptoms of gonorrhea. When women do develop symptoms,
they tend to be mild or similar to other infections, making them more difficult
to identify. Gonorrhea infections can appear much like common vaginal yeast
or bacterial infections.
Symptoms
include:
- discharge from the vagina (watery, creamy, or slightly green)
- pain or burning sensation while urinating
- the need to urinate more frequently
- heavier periods or spotting
- sore throat
- pain upon engaging in sexual intercourse
- sharp pain in the lower abdomen
- fever
Healthcare
professionals can diagnose gonorrhea infection in several ways. They can take a
sample of fluid from the symptomatic area with a swab (penis, vagina, rectum,
or throat) and place it on a glass slide. If your doctor suspects a joint or blood
infection, he or she will obtain the sample by drawing blood
or inserting a needle into the symptomatic joint to withdraw fluid. They will
then add a stain to the sample and examine it under a microscope. If cells
react to the stain, you most likely have a gonorrhea infection. This method is
relatively quick and easy, but it doesn’t provide absolutely certainty. This
test may also be completed by a lab technologist.
A
second method involves taking the same type of sample and placing it on a
special dish. This will be incubated under ideal growth conditions for several
days. A colony of gonorrhea bacteria will grow if gonorrhea is present.
A
preliminary result may be ready within 24 hours. A final result will take up to
three days.
Women
are at greater risk of long-term complications from untreated infections.
Untreated infection with gonorrhea in women may ascend up the female
reproductive tract and involve the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. This
condition is known as pelvic
inflammatory disease (PID) and can cause severe and chronic pain and damage
the female reproductive organs. PID can be caused by other sexually transmitted
diseases as well. Women may also develop blocking or scarring of the fallopian
tubes, which can prevent
future pregnancy or cause ectopic
pregnancy. An ectopic pregnancy is when a fertilized egg implants outside
the uterus. Gonorrhea infection may pass to a newborn infant during delivery.
Men
may experience scarring of the urethra. Men may also develop a painful abscess
in the interior of the penis. The infection can cause reduced fertility or sterility.
When
gonorrhea infection spreads to the bloodstream, both men and women can
experience arthritis,
heart valve damage, or inflammation of the lining of the brain or
spinal cord. These are rare but serious conditions.
Modern
antibiotics can cure most gonorrhea infections. Most states also provide free
diagnosis and treatment at state-sponsored health clinics.
At home and over-the-counter remedies
There
are no at-home remedies or over-the-counter medications that will treat an
infection with gonorrhea. If you suspect that you have gonorrhea, you should
seek care from a healthcare professional.
Antibiotics
Gonorrhea
is usually treated with an antibiotic injection of Ceftriaxone one time to the
buttocks or a single dose of Azithromycin
by mouth. Once on antibiotics, you should feel relief within days.
The
law requires healthcare professionals to report the infection, usually to the
county public health department. Public health officials will identify,
contact, test, and treat any sexual partners of the affected person to help
prevent the spread of the infection. Health officials will also contact other
people these individuals may have had sexual contact with.
The
emergence of antibiotic-resistant strains of gonorrhea is a growing
challengeTrusted Source. These cases may require more extensive treatment,
with a seven-day course of an oral antibiotic or dual therapy with two
different antibiotics, usually for a total of seven days of therapy. The
antibiotics used for extended therapy are usually given once or twice a day.
Some common antibiotics used include azithromycin and doxycycline. Scientists
are working to develop vaccines to prevent gonorrhea infection.
The
safest way to prevent
gonorrhea or other STDs is through abstinence. If you do engage in sex, always
use a condom. It’s important to be open with your sexual partners, get regular STD
testing, and find out if they’ve been tested.
If
your partner is showing signs of a possible infection, avoid any sexual contact
with them. Ask them to seek medical attention to rule out any possible
infection that can be passed on.
You’re
at a higher risk of contracting gonorrhea if you’ve already had it or any other
STDs. You’re also at a higher risk if you have multiple sexual partners or a
new partner.
If
you think you may have gonorrhea, you should avoid any sexual activity. You
should also contact your doctor immediately.
During
your doctor’s visit, be prepared to:
- detail your symptoms
- discuss your sexual history
- provide the contact info for previous sexual partners so that the doctor can contact them anonymously on your behalf
If
you’re in contact with your sexual partner(s), let them know they should be
tested immediately.
If
you’re placed on antibiotics, it’s important to take the full course of pills
to ensure that your infection is completely treated. Cutting your course of
antibiotics short can make the bacteria more likely to develop resistance to
the antibiotic. You also need to follow up with your doctor one to two weeks
later to make sure that your infection has cleared.
If
the results come back negative and your sexual partner is also clear of any
infection, it’s possible to resume sexual activity.
Q:
What
is the relationship between gonorrhea and chlamydia?
A:
Gonorrhea
and chlamydia are both bacteria that cause STDs. The risk factors are the same
for both infections, and both cause similar symptoms. The complications of
chlamydia are very similar to gonorrhea except chlamydia is much less likely to
affect sites other than the reproductive tract. Diagnosis and treatment are
virtually the same as well. If you think you may have an STD, you should see a
healthcare professional. They can determine what type it is by testing you as
described above, and then start proper treatment.
