Painful Urination: • The term “dysuria” refers to any pain or discomfort associated with urination. It does not refer to urinary frequency, though disorders of frequency can often be accompanied by dysuria.
Experiences painful urination • Anyone, male or female, of any age can experience painful urination. It is more common in women. It is most commonly associated with urinary tract infections, which more often affect women than men. Pregnant women, men and women with diabetes, and men and women with any type of disease of the bladder are at higher risk of dysuria.
causes of painful urination • Painful urination for women can be the result of a vaginal infection, urinary tract infection, or inflammation of the urethra (the tube that connects the bladder and genitals) or vagina. This inflammation may be caused by sexual intercourse, douches, soaps, scented toilet paper, contraceptive sponges, or spermicide.
symptoms of painful urination • Symptoms for female patients can be internal or external. Pain on the outside of the vaginal area may be caused by inflammation or irritation of this sensitive skin. An internal pain can be a symptom of a urinary tract infection.
painful urination diagnosed: • Your doctor will also take a medical history, including questions about medical conditions you may have, such as diabetes mellitus or immunodeficiency disorders. He or she may also ask about your sexual history to determine if an STI could be the cause of the pain. Tests to screen for STIs may also be needed.
