"Hi I'm Doctor Savage I'm here to tell you how Gonorrhea is diagnosed. If you have any symptoms such as discharge from the urethral tract, the urinary tract, the penis, the vagina. You would go to your primary care physician and you discuss that with him. The way that it's diagnosed actually is a cultured swab. Whether it's in the general area where the swab is taken or somewhere else where the infection can take place such as in the mouth or in severe Gonorrhea infections like public inflammatory disease they can be taken by other methods while in surgery even. With that said if there's any concern talk to your primary physician or go to a health care department where they can actually do this test. I'm sure this has been informative I'm Doctor Savage. Here's to your health."
