HENRICO, VA (WWBT) -

Dr. Sheena Keene is treating gonorrhea.

The symptoms include painful urination, vaginal or penile discharge, abdominal and/or pelvic pain.

The best treatment is an antibiotic shot for patient and all sexual partners. The patient should seek medical attention with any of the symptoms.
