10 Gonorrhea Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
Symptom #5: Itching of the Anus
Another thing that’s quite common among people suffering from gonorrhea is the uncomfortable sensation of anal itching. This is because the bacteria that causes the STD itself is capable of spreading to other areas, such as the rectum.
When this happens, one of the most common symptoms that emerge is an uncomfortable, persistent itch. It’s important not to confuse this anal itch with other pathologies that may cause this symptom to appear, therefore, you should seek medical attention for proper diagnosis.
