What is the term for difficulty with urination?

Incontinence
Dysuria
Polyuria
Hematuria

The correct answer is: Dysuria

The correct term for difficulty with urination is "dysuria." Dysuria specifically refers to the discomfort or pain associated with the process of urination, often experienced as a burning sensation or straining. This condition can be caused by various issues, such as urinary tract infections, inflammation, or obstruction. Incontinence refers to the inability to control urination, which is different from the difficulty in urination described by dysuria. Polyuria refers to the excess production of urine, while hematuria indicates the presence of blood in the urine. Both polyuria and hematuria relate to urination but do not specifically describe the difficulty encountered during the process.
