Dysuria

Description

Dysuria describes a painful and burning sensation when passing urine.

Dysuria is mostly experienced by women in pregnancy, and in men and women both having urine infections (most common).

Causes
  • Drinking less water produces concentrated urine that causes a burning sensation.
  • Application of allergic products like deodorants and wearing nylon underwear.
  • Catheter placement can be painful and damage the skin.
  • Poor hygiene and cleanliness of genitalia.
  • Frequent intercourse and rough sexual activity.
  • Common bacterial infections of the urinary tract like urethritis (urethra is the tube that carries urine to bladder for excretion), prostatitis (prostate), cystitis (bladder) and kidney cystitis.
  • Holding the urine for long periods may damage the bladder and also let the germs in urine cause infections and burning sensation.
Risk factors
  • Candida infection of vagina with sore and rash skin produces a burning sensation when urine touches the damaged skin.
  • Sexually transmitted infections like syphilis, genital herpes, chlamydia and gonorrhea.
  • Old age and hormonal effects can produce vaginal dryness and more chances of infections.
  • Uterine or prostate cancer.
  • High blood pressure and diabetes may damage the kidneys and cause secondary infections of kidney and urinary tract.
  • Kidney diseases (kidney stones, cysts) may be causing a blockage.
Symptoms

The sufferer of dysuria will complain of:

  • Itching and discomfort.
  • Soreness of the genitalia.
  • Pain in side of body (the location of kidney) in kidney stones.
  • Burning like feeling on passing urine.
  • A feeling of incomplete emptying of bladder and need to pee more and frequently.
  • Pain in intercourse.
  • Leakage of white fluid (in both males and females) in infections.
  • Disturbed nights and usual routine due to pain and discomfort.
Diagnosis

Diagnosis of the disease or infection causing dysuria is done by following these steps:

  • Asking questions about history of the symptoms of pain, frequency of such a problem, sexual activity, medicines, diabetes or kidney problem, catheter insertion in some medical condition.
  • Examination of the abdomen by feeling the kidney, checking the genitalia.
  • Signs of infections in women are checked by a gynecologist.
  • Urine lab tests and urine culture to check for an infection or presence of blood (suggestive of some complication)
  • Ultrasound for an image of kidneys and urinary tract.
  • Cystoscopy for viewing the bladder and urethra for a problem.
Management

Prevention is always better than cure so let’s help your kidneys by drinking more water, eating fiber-loaded and vitamin C rich diet (to fight bacterial infections by keeping the urine acidic enough) , quit smoking, stop drinking carbonated fizzy drinks, alcohol and caffeine.

  • Antibiotics will treat infections of the urinary tract and kidneys.
  • Painkillers help relief the pain.
  • Flavoxate to help urinary urgency and bladder problem.
  • Surgical correction of kidney stones and cysts.
When to consult a doctor?

Blood spotting, pain and fever following an infection of the urinary tract is suggestive of some complications and needs urgent medical care by a specialist doctor (urologist).
