Bestial Devastation - Papilloma Virus

Calymmatobacterium granulomatis
Donovanosis
Calymmatobacterium granulomatis
Produces thick, puffy, red sores on genitals and anus and, occasionally in nongenital areas
It's found in contaminated food or water and, once digested it
Is then sexually transmitted
The disease also can be transmitted from mothers to newborns
Donovanosis may cause gastrointestinal problems
Such as diarrhea

Donovanosis

Lesions appear
On the skin or on
Genital membranes
They appear
At the entrance
To the vagina

Re-infection
To other parts
Of the body
Through touching
Or scratching
Is possible

Disfiguring genital swelling
May need to be
Surgically corrected

Candidiasis occurs when there is overgrowth
Of the fungus called candida albicans
Women usually have genital itching or burning
With or without a "cottage cheese-like" vaginal discharge
It occurs more frequently and more severely
In people with weakened immune systems

Candida usually live in the mouth, gastrointestinal tract - and vagina
Thrush is the name for a mouth infection caused by the candida - albicans fungus
It affects moist surfaces around the lips, inside the cheeks - and on the tongue and palate
If you try to scrape off this whitish surface, you will usually find a red - inflamed area

Candida infections
Of the mouth
Can spread
To the esophagus causing esophagitis

Candida esophagitis
May make
Swallowing difficult or painful

Candida can cause
Skin infections
Including diaper rash

Cutaneous candidiasis
Causes patches of red
Sometimes with small pustules nearby

In deep candidiasis, candida fungi contaminate the bloodstream
And spread throughout the body, causing severe infection
Candida may cause a wide range of symptoms
From unexplained fever to shock and multiple organ - failure

Chlamydia trachomatis can damage a woman's reproductive organs
Even though symptoms of chlamydia are usually mild or absent
Serious complications that cause irreversible damage
Can also be passed from an infected mother to her baby

The bacteria initially infect the cervix and the urethra
Women might have an abnormal vaginal discharge
When the infection spreads from the cervix to the fallopian tubes
Some women still have no signs or symptoms
Others have lower abdominal pain, low back pain, nausea, fever
Pain during intercourse, or bleeding between menstrual periods

Who have receptive anal intercourse may acquire chlamydial infection
In the rectum, which can cause rectal pain, discharge, or bleeding
In women, untreated infection can spread into the uterus
Or fallopian tubes and cause pelvic inflammatory disease

Pelvic inflammatory disease
Causes permanent damage
To the fallopian tubes
Uterus, and surrounding tissue

The damage can lead
To chronic pelvic pain
And potentially fatal
Ectopic pregnancy

Rarely, genital chlamydial infection can cause arthritis
That can be accompanied by skin lesions
In pregnant women untreated chlamydial infections
Can lead to premature delivery
Babies who are born to infected mothers can get
Chlamydial infections in their eyes and respiratory tracts
Chlamydia is a leading cause of early infant
Pneumonia and conjuctivitis in newborns

The vaginal discharge characteristically is described
As a thin gray, homogeneous fluid
Male partners of women with the bacterial veginosis
may have urethral colonization of the same organism

Gardnerella vaginalis

It can be a colonization of the rectum in virginal boys and girls
Endometritis, salpingitis, pelvic inflammatory disease
Complications of pregnancy, premature rupture of membranes
Premature labor, chorioamnionitis, postgynecologic procedure infections

Gardnerella veginalis

Herpes genitalis is caused by the herpes simplex virus
Typically affects the genital area
Caused either genital or oral infections
Cause "outbreaks"
Of blisters
And ulcers

Herpes is spread by anal sex, oral sex, and vaginal sex
Can be transmitted with or without the presence of sores
An estimated 40 million people have genital herpes
Which is a chronic viral infection

HSV may cause
Recurrent painful, genital ulcers
And can be severe in people
With suppressed immune systems

Severe genital herpes
Frequently causes
Psychological
And emotional stress

If a woman
With HSV is pregnant
Potentially fatal infections
In infants can occur

People infected
With herpes
May be more susceptible
To HIV infection

Blisters or bumps may appear on the genital area
When it gets into skin cells the virus reproduces itself
And starts to multiply, making the skin red and sensative

Symptoms include
A purulent discharge
From the genitals
Which may be foul smelling

Conjuctivitis
Commonly
In neonatal infection
Also occasionally in adults

Infection primarily
Affects the skin
And mucous membranes
Including the mouth and genitals

Involving a rash
Inflammation
Purulent discharge
Neisseria gonorroeae

Neisseria
Gonorrhoeae

Neisseria gonorrhoeae

Complications may include epididymitis in males and pelvic inflammatory disease in females
Gonococcal conjunctivitis may occur in adults via direct contamination of the eye
And particularly in newborns after inoculation in the birth canal of infected mothers
Rarer complications include blood-borne infection resulting in arthralgia or arthritis

Neisseria gonorrhoeae

If can infect the genital area including - the skin of the vulva
Or anus, and the linings of the vagina, cervix, - or rectum
Abnormal growths may form on the skin around - the external genitalia
The skin round the anus, the vagina - and the cervix

Cancer-associated forms of HPV
Usually have a thin, flat shape and
Are almost invisible, compared
With other forms of genital warts

The major form of cancer linked
To HPV is cervical cancer
Approximately 20 million people
Are currently infected with HPV

Genital warts usually appear as moist and - flesh-colored swellings
They can be raised or flat, single or multiple - small or large
They can appear on the vulva, in or around - the vagina
Or anus, on the cervix, and on the groin - or thigh

Some people get visible genital warts
Or have pre-cancerous changes in the cervix, vulva, anus
The virus lives in the skin or muccus membranes
And usually causes no symptoms

The crab louse phthirus pubis is transmitted by close body contact
Adult lice infest strong hairs of the pubic area
Eggs are laid which adhere to the hairs
Blue macules may be visible at feeding sites

Phthirus pubis

The louse feeds - on blood
And can leave - irritating
Spots on the skin
Phthirus pubis

The hallmark of staphylococcal infection
Is the abscess
Which consists of a fibrin wall
Surrounded by inflamed tissues
Enclosing a central core of pus
Containing organisms and leukocytes
The organisms can be disseminated
Hematogenously even from the smallest abscess

This can result in pneumonia bone, joint infection
And infection of the heart valves
In the immunocompromised host
Serious complications or fatal sepsis can occur

These organisms have been described
In patients with cystic fibrosis
The organism can also elaborate toxins
That can cause specific diseases or sydromes

The most feared manifestation of toxin production
By Staphylococcus Aureus is toxic shock syndrome
It was most frequently associated with the use
Of tampons in women during menstruation

Folliculitis is a tender pustule - that involves the hair follicle
Furuncle involves the skin - and the subcutaneous tissues
Carbuncle is an aggregate - of connected furuncles
And has several pustular openings

Myalgia is the earliest manifestations of the disease
Emesis or diarrhea appears at the same time of illness
Vomiting and abdominal distension
Clinical deterioration is rapid

Cause of postpartum infection
The most common cause of neonatal sepsis
Group B streptococci colonize
The vaginal and gastrointestinal tract
As a cause of infection in pregnant women
Can be manifest by chorioamnionitis, endometritis
Genitourinary infection with bacteremia
Cardiovascular and genitourinary abnormalities

Streptococcus agalactiae

Pnemonia
Soft tissue infection
Pelvic abscess
Urinary tract infection
Abscess drainage
Osteomyelitis
Genitourinary obstruction
Septic arthritis

Streptococci has significant mortality
In both neonates and adults
It's a gram-positive coccus
That forms glistening gray-white colonies
Group B streptococcal infection
In the nonpregnant adult carries
A high morbidity and a high mortality
Rate even with early and appropriate therapy

Streptococcus agalactiae

Transmission of the organism occurs during
Vaginal, anal, or oral sex
The primary stage of syphilis is usually marked
By the appearance of a single sore, called a chancre

Sores occur mainly on the external genitals, vagina, anus, or in the rectum
Sores also can occur on the lips and in the mouth, with a swelling of lymph glands
The chancre lasts 3 to 6 weeks, and it heals without treatment
If treatment is not administered, the infection progresses to the secondary stage

Skin rash and mucous membrane legions
Characterize the secondary stage
Rash may appears as rough, red, or reddish brown
Spots both on the palms of the hands
Fever, sore throat, patchy hair loss, headaches
Weight loss, muscle aches, and fatigue
The late stage of syphilis begins
When secondary symptoms disappear

Infection remains in the body
It may damage the internal organs
Including the brain, nerves, eyes, heart
Blood vessels, liver, bones, and joints
Signs and symptoms include
Difficulty coordinating muscle movements
Paralysis, blindness and dementia
This damage may cause death

The syphilis bacterium can infect the baby of a woman during her pregnancy
The infected woman may have a high risk of having a stillbirth
An infected baby may be born without signs or symptoms of disease
Untreated babies may become delayed, have seizures, or die

Flagella, nucleus, axostyle and undulating membrane are visible
In the initial phase there is an intense painful itch
Trophozoites live and multiply in vaginal cavity and urethra
Trichomonas vaginalis inhabits the vaginal and urethral tissues

Infection acquired by veneral contacts
Most people infected with trichomoniasis are asymptomatic
Symptomatic infection is - more common in women during the reproductive period
Symptomatic infections cause - a white or green discharge from the genital tract
Symptoms typically occur - after an incubation period of 4-28 days

Responsible for vaginitis and urethral discharge
Purulent vagina discharge and vulvar or vaginal erythema
Green stinking scum came of from the vagina

Trichomonas vaginalis

The protozoal pathogen causes direct damage to the epithelium
Diagnosis obtained by microscopic examination of urine
It depends on finding trophozoites in secretions of the genital tract
Trichomonas vaginalis is isolated from the vagina, cervix, urethra

Trichomoniasis affects - approximately 180 million women worldwide
Trichomonas vaginalis infection is - associated with the presence of other STDs

It is a bacterium
Which causes infertility

Chorioamnioitis
Recurrent pregnancy loss

Pelvic pain, premature birth
Stillbirth

Pneumonia or meningitis
In the perinatal period

The bacteria can survive in the reproductive tract for many years
Undetected, until a patient is specifically tested for the infection

Burning on urination
Urinating all the time

Having urgency to urinate
Urinary tract infection

The infection can spread to other parts
Of your body

Making you sick or damaging nerves
Joints and muscles
