10 Causes of Dysuria
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Cause #9: Cancer
Though it is not the most common cause of dysuria, various types of cancer can result in this symptom. The types of cancer responsible are usually those that affect the body parts associated with painful urination: the vagina, the bladder, the prostate, the urethra, or the penis.
Cancer is a painful condition on its own, and there are a number of complications, such as tumors, that can emerge as a result of contracting the disease. If these tumors press on the urethra, or any other area in the urinary tract, it can become painful or difficult to urinate.
