Definition

Relating to or affected by dysuria; describing painful or difficult urination.

Etymology

Adjective form of dysuria, formed with Greek medical suffix. Used in medical literature to describe conditions characterized by urinary pain or difficulty.

Kelly Says

The term 'dysuric' is more clinical than the plain English 'painful urination,' which is exactly why doctors use it—it creates a professional distance that makes discussions about bathroom problems feel less awkward in medical settings!
