After going to the massage parlor and having oral relations with the staff at the facility, despite using condoms, Mr. Toan (character's name has been changed, 30 years old, Ho Chi Minh City) still suffered from urinary tract infection. When he went to a clinic in Ho Chi Minh City, Mr. Toan spent tens of millions of VND on testing and surgery, but his illness did not improve, and even became more serious.
Mr. Toan said that more than a week later, his penis was swollen and had discharge. At this clinic, every check-up he had to do many tests, costing several million VND but was not given any medicine. He was also ordered to be "closed" nearly 20 million VND. However, instead of the correct surgery, he only had a suture around the circumference of his head, which was still intact, unconscious, the circumference was still long and the inflammation did not improve.
In early August 2025, he went to Tam Anh General Hospital. Doctor Nguyen Cong Minh, the hospital's Reproductive Support Center, said that urethritis testing aims to identify bacteria, resistance, and respond to treatment. If the results show inflammation, it is necessary to take medicine.
According to Dr. Minh, the procedure that the clinic previously performed on Mr. Toan was actually a "fake" procedure that could not treat the disease.
The patient was only allowed to use a needle to get through the scalp and tie it. This method is ineffective, and makes the air just a place to stay for bacteria, making inflammation worse, said Dr. Minh. In addition, this round can also create scars, narrowing the circumference, making it difficult for proper surgery later.
Mr. Toan is currently being treated with antibiotics for terminal treatment of acute inflammation. When the condition is stable, the doctor will perform the correct incision surgery and remove the old threads.
Urinary tract is the urine and seminiferous tract in men. Urinary inflammation is often caused by bacteria transmitted through unsafe sex such as smuggling, Chlamydia, Trichomonas, Herpes, etc., or by reasoning to urinate, placing a urinary tract, reacting to chemicals. Men with long or narrow scrotum are susceptible to diseases due to difficulty in hygiene, creating an environment for bacteria to grow.
Typical symptoms include burning, pain when urinating, abnormal fluid secretion, itching, swelling, frequent urination, and may mix blood in urine or seminiferous juice. If not treated promptly, the disease can lead to testiculartritis, testicular inflammation, prostate inflammation, urethral stenosis and infertility.
Doctor Minh recommends that to prevent the disease, you need to have safe, honest sex, use condoms, have regular health check-ups, clean personal hygiene, drink enough water and urinate immediately after sex. When there are unusual signs, you should go to a reputable hospital to avoid abuse of testing, unnecessary surgical instructions and an uncertain price list.
