What causes painful urination in women?

1. Urethritis

If a woman feels a stinging pain in the urethra when urinating, she may have urethritis. Urethritis is a common urinary system disease, which is more common in female patients. The main symptom of urethritis in women is pain when they start to urinate. It is divided into several categories: acute urethritis, acute urethritis, gonococcal urethritis and nonspecific urethritis. The actual situation still needs to be examined by a doctor in detail. When suffering from urethritis, symptoms such as difficulty urinating, redness and swelling of the urethra, and low immunity will occur.

2. Cystitis

Women who feel urethral pain when urinating may also be caused by cystitis. The urethral pain caused by cystitis is usually a stabbing pain, and there is pain in the urethra or bladder area during urination or after urination. The difference between bladder inflammation and urethritis is that the pain usually worsens when urination is about to be completed. If you suffer from bladder stones, the urine flow will be interrupted. We can distinguish them from many aspects.

How to treat painful urination in women

1. Use of antibiotics

At present, there are various types of drugs used for treatment. According to the type of bacteria and its sensitivity to drugs, 2 to 3 drugs should be used in a targeted manner to achieve good results. The medication should be continued for 7 to 10 days and then discontinued after the symptoms have completely subsided, the urine test is normal, and the bacterial culture is negative.

2. Auxiliary treatment

In case of acute symptoms, you should drink more water to increase urination and clean the urethra. If you have frequent urination, urgency, inability to hold urine, and pain when urinating, you can take antispasmodics and eliminate various causes of urethritis. Urethritis caused by genital tract infection should be treated together with immediate family members, otherwise it cannot be cured.
