Urethritis

Urethritis is an inflammation of the urethra. The symptoms are dysuria, which is pain (usually burning pain) on urination (micturition).

In the diagnostic approach to urethritis, physicians classify the disease as gonococcal urethritis or non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU), based on its causation. Non-gonococcal urethritis, sometimes called non-specific urethritis (NSU), has both infectious and non-infectious causes.
