Gonorrhea's nickname is "The Clap". "The Clap" can infect the genitals, throat, and rectum. It is a common STD that is more prevalent for men and women between the ages of 15-24. Gonorrhea also infects 800,000 to 1 million people each year in the United States.]]> 2023-04-27 01:25:31 UTC https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569574004 kmahyarb20 https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569584904 Symptoms for gonorrhea may vary person to person. Some men infected with the disease may exhibit no symptoms while others have a hard time urinating and unusual discharge from their penis. Women experience pain while urinating or a burning sensation. They may also have an increase in their vaginal discharge or bleeding. If one is experiencing any of said symptoms, they should consult with their primary care doctor or an emergency physician.]]> 2023-04-27 01:33:31 UTC https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569584904 kmahyarb20 https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569600611 Gonorrhea can not only affect a woman, it can affect a newborn. If a mother contracts gonorrhea while pregnant and does have it treated before the delivery of her child, the baby can be at risks for serious health problems. The baby could be at risk for being born prematurely and that has its own problems health wise within itself. Low birth weight is another one of the problems an infant may face. If the mother delivers vaginally, the baby can be at risk for a severe eye infection as well.]]> 2023-04-27 01:46:26 UTC https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569600611 kmahyarb20 https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569603866 Gonorrhea has some long term effects. If gonorrhea is left untreated in women it can cause pelvic inflammatory disease. The effects of PID is the formation of scar tissue that can block the fallopian tubes, ectopic pregnancy, and infertility. In men, it can cause a painful condition in the tubes attached to the testicles. In rare cases, this could lead to infertility. Gonorrhea left untreated in men can also spread to your joints or in your blood and this is life-threatening. ]]> 2023-04-27 01:48:58 UTC https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569603866 kmahyarb20 https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569626283 One of the good things about gonorrhea is that it is a curable disease. The CDC recommends that a person infected receive 500 mg of intramuscular ceftriaxone. If you would like to make a more holistic approach, a study conducted in a lab showed that the antibacterial properties possessed by garlic fought against the bacteria of gonorrhea. Apple cider vinegar is also recommended via the internet if taken orally or applied to the affected area. However, this is not supported by any research claims. Apple cider vinegar is also very acidic and this could irritate the area so an individual should use at their own risk.]]> 2023-04-27 02:06:25 UTC https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569626283 kmahyarb20 https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569636783 Some things are inevitable but there are some ways you can prevent this sexually transmitted disease. One could abstain from vaginal, anal, or oral sex completely. If you feel you can not go without sex, using a barrier method such as condoms could prevent a person from being infected. This also helps if you have multiple partners. Engaging in a sexual relationship with only one partner is also a way of preventing one from being affected with the disease. ]]> 2023-04-27 02:14:17 UTC https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569636783 kmahyarb20 https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569641567 Molecular photo of what gonorrhea may look inside of an infected individual. ]]> 2023-04-27 02:17:48 UTC https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569641567 kmahyarb20 https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569644736 Apple cider vinegar is said to be a cure for gonorrhea but is not backed by evidence.]]> 2023-04-27 02:20:03 UTC https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569644736 kmahyarb20 https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569645612 Onions are said to be a cure for gonorrhea for their antibacterial properties.]]> 2023-04-27 02:20:37 UTC https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569645612 kmahyarb20 https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569648741 One affect of untreated gonorrhea is a low birth weight in a newborn.]]> 2023-04-27 02:23:01 UTC https://padlet.com/kmahyarb20/v5kimeuiqbc4gckm/wish/2569648741
