Urination is often difficult, as if from paralysis of the bladder, from sphincter spasms, or from an urethral stricture. Has to wait some time before the urine flows, but even then it remains incomplete; has to apply much straining, has to force the last drops out with his hands. The urine dribbles out after the stream ceases.
There is much and obstinate urging to urinate, which often continues after voiding urine, and may be coupled with much straining; great strangury on passing water; sometimes hardly able to retain urine, sometimes unable to pass a drop in spite of violent urging.
Frequent micturition, especially in the evening and at night, but usually only in small quantities. Frequent urination, with burning pain, in the evening. There may also be an alternation between copious passing of clear, light-coloured urine and frequent voiding of small quantities with pain. It may also be loaded with much mucus, especially after exposure to damp cold, or else as a consequence of gonorrhoea.
Scanty urine, passed drop by drop with burning, sometimes mixed with blood, with continuous, unbearable urging.*
Stinging, biting and burning in the urethra before, during, and especially after urination is a characteristic and well-confirmed symptom. The pain often goes backward towards the bladder.* Uneasiness, with a burning sensation in the penis and urethra and frequent calls to urinate.
A peculiar symptom is sharp pricking, like needles, in the urethra, so severe as to send a thrill to the cheeks and hands.
Kidney pains are also frequent. Aching in the kidneys, keeping him awake at night. Pain in the kidneys when laughing (or soreness from other jarring influences). Burning kidney pains. Nephritic colic.* Nephritis with constant dull pain in the region of the kidneys, with violent colic-like pains along the ureters; also dull pain in the glans penis. Drawing pain from the kidneys to the inguinal glands, with an anxious, nauseous sensation in the pit of the stomach.*
