In medicine, specifically urology, dysuria refers to painful urination.
Difficult urination is also sometimes described as dysuria.
It is one of a constellation of irritative bladder symptoms, which includes urinary frequency and haematuria.
This is typically described to be a burning or stinging sensation. It is most often a result of a urinary tract infection. It may also be due to an STD, bladder stones, bladder tumours, and virtually any condition of the prostate. It can also occur as a side effect of anticholinergic medication used for Parkinson's disease.
