What Is Urethritis?
6. Sepsis
Serious complications for urethritis are very unlikely, especially considering the condition is very treatable. If the condition is not treated adequately, however, then serious problems can develop. Any pathogen causing the condition can spread to other parts of the body if left untreated, causing infections elsewhere in the body.
If the infection is severe enough, permanent damage to other organs can result. There is also a chance that the bloodstream will also become infected, potentially resulting in sepsis. Sepsis is a very serious condition indeed that is a result of a severe reaction to the presence of bacteria in the body.
