10 Signs of Kidney Stones
5. Pain During Urination
Dysuria is the medical term used to describe the presence of pain during urination. It is a non-specific symptom associated with many conditions such as urinary tract infections (UTI), kidney stones, and sexually transmitted infections (STI) to name a few. This symptom is often described as a burning sensation during urination and it can be quite a painful experience.
This symptom can be seen in patients with kidney stones that are lodged in the point where the ureter joins with the bladder. It can also be a sign that an underlying urinary tract infection might be present as well.
