3. Dysuria and Related Diseases
Urinary tract infections are the most closely linked condition to painful urination. Besides dysuria, these infections may also lead to foul smelling, cloudy or bloody urine, and fever.
Other conditions associated with painful urination include kidney stones, and STIs such as gonorrhea, syphilis, and chlamydia. In the case of these STIs, the dysuria may be accompanied with additional symptoms like itching, blisters, and abnormal discharge. Dysuria may also be linked to yeast infections of the vagina.
