Gonorrhea in Males
Alternate Names : Gonococcal Urethritis
What are the signs and symptoms of the infection?
About half of the men with gonorrhea have no symptoms. Those who have symptoms may notice the following:
discharge of pus from the penis
eye pain and discharge
frequent or painful urination
pus-filled discharge from the penis
rectal discomfort
sore throat
Gonorrhea that has spread to other parts of the body may cause a rash and fever. The person may have painful, swollen joints. Other symptoms are specific to the body part that is infected. An infection in the heart, for example, may cause heart valve problems and impaired blood flow.
