Abstract
Dysuria happens when the patient cannot void urine due to various reasons, which manifest as hesitancy and difficulty in urination, extended time, shortened range, weak urine stream, interrupted voiding and dribbling after urination, etc. With progression of the disease, failure to empty urine from the bladder results in urinary retention or ischuria. These patients always exhibit frequency and urgency on urination, urinary incontinence and dribbling after urination.
