Gonorrhea Became Untreatable !

picture by : alodokter.com
One of the most common sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is becoming harder and harder to treat.
According to NBC News, on Friday the World Health Organization (WHO) announced that the drug-resistant gonorrhea is becoming more common, making a once easily treated infection into a nightmare disease.
Experts claim that over the years, the bacteria strains have evolved “outsmarting” the current medicine available.
“The bacteria that cause gonorrhea are particularly smart. Every time we use a new class of antibiotics to treat the infection, the bacteria evolve to resist them,” said WHO’s Dr. Teodora Wi.
Currently gonorrhea—also called “the clap” and “the drip”—is treated with penicillin,but more and more countries are reporting that they have to go down a list of drugs in order to successfully treat people.
The WHO stated that 97 percent of countries report gonorrhea that resists ciprofloxacin, 81 percent have found cases that resist azithromycin and two-thirds of countries have found strains that resist the last-resort drugs: extended-spectrum cephalosporins such as oral cefixime or injectable ceftriaxone.
And this is just the “tip of the iceburg,” says Wi.
Before you freak out, be clear: This doesn’t mean gonorhea is untreatable. But the WHO did admit that there have been a few cases that did not respond to treatment at all.
“To date, three extensively drug-resistant gonococcal strains with high-level resistance to ceftriaxone (‘superbugs’) have also been reported — in France, Japan, and Spain,” the WHO wrote in their report.
The WHO stressed that gonorrhea rates around the world are going up due to lack of “condom use, increased urbanization and travel, poor infection detection rates, and inadequate or failed treatment all contribute to this increase.”
They also emphasize that we need new drugs, but currently there are only 3 new candidate drugs in the clinical trial phases.
“To address the pressing need for new treatments for gonorrhoea, we urgently need to seize the opportunities we have with existing drugs and candidates in the pipeline. In the short term, we aim to accelerate the development and introduction of at least one of these pipeline drugs, and will evaluate the possible development of combination treatments for public health use,” said Dr Manica Balasegaram, the director of Global Antibiotic Research and Development Partnership.
“Any new treatment developed should be accessible to everyone who needs it, while ensuring it’s used appropriately, so that drug resistance is slowed as much as possible.”
According to the CDC, symptoms in men include:
  • A burning sensation when urinating
  • A white, yellow, or green discharge from the penis
  • Painful or swollen testicles
In women:
  • Painful or burning sensation when urinating
  • Increased vaginal discharge
  • Vaginal bleeding between periods
But keep in mind: Plenty of people don’t show ANY signs that they have the infection.
What are the dangers of untreated gonorrhea?
First off: It’s not deadly.
But being undiagnosed and untreated for STIs can bring about a range of complications that include chronic pelvic pain, ectopic pregnancy, fetal death and infertility. It can also raise your risk of contracting HIV five times over.
This is why it’s so important to be tested and treated for STIs, especially given that most STIs, especially in men, show no symptoms. So many folks are completely unaware of their status and in fact may be unintentionally infecting others.

    I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
    liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
    reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
    became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
    ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
    treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
    the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
    treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.

How To Stop Bleeding

Hello Everyone, This time I will share tips on how to stop the bleeding that occurs in the human body with the cause of an accident (Accidents causing the bleeding in any way) Stop bleeding by pressing the wound or around the wound, if your wound is wide enough then you need to press it right on itself and do not often see your wound just to make sure the bleeding has stopped, just hit! In the case of a wound on the leg or in the hand then you should raise your hands or feet so that the position is higher than your head because it minimizes bleeding, if the bleeding is still not stalled then most likely backflow on your pulse has been cut off, press the blood near the wound so you can stop the flow of blood from the direction of the heart to another place - If the wound is in the arm, emphasize your hand on the pulse in the armpit area - If the wound is in the palm of the hand or finger then emphasize your hand in the wrist area - If the wound is in the foot area, Emphas...
