One of the most common sexually transmitted diseases in Nigeria is Gonorrhea. This disease is often caused by an infection with the host-virus commonly called ‘bacterium Neisseria gonorrhea.’

It is a venereal disease involving provocative and severe discharge from the vagina. This disease is usually spread mainly by having sexual intercourse with an infected person.

Just like every other infection or disease, when a person has been infected with the virus, some signs that a man has been infected with Gonorrhea include but are not limited to; foul discharge from the penis with whitish, yellowish, or greenish color, swollen and painful testicles, unpleasant pains from the tip of the penis when urinating and if the infected person is engaged in oral sex, he may experience swollen glands and severe burning in the throat.
