What's the matter with boys' urethral plug?

Urethral obstruction in boys may be caused by urethral inflammation, ureteral stones, urethral polyps and other diseases.

After the urethra is infected by bacteria or pathogens, it may lead to urethritis, which may also cause local congestion and swelling of the mucous membrane, resulting in the inability to discharge urine normally. It can be treated with oral administration of cefixime dispersible tablets, amoxicillin capsules, roxithromycin capsules and other drugs under the guidance of a doctor.

Ureteral stones are caused by kidney stones flowing into the ureter, which will cause certain irritation to the ureteral area, easily leading to blockage of the urethra orifice, and accompanied by pain. This can be improved through extracorporeal laser lithotripsy.

After the urethra is inflammatory and infected for a long time, it may also cause local raised lesions, accompanied by symptoms such as urethral polyps, and may also cause urethral obstruction. It can be treated by surgical removal.

In addition to the above reasons, it is not ruled out that it is caused by diseases such as urinary tumors. Related examinations are also needed to accurately determine the cause of the condition.
