Urethritis is inflammation of the urethra.
The patient complains of pain and urethral discharge, and of dysuria but maybe asymptomatic in some patients (1).
The disease is confirmed by demonstrating an excess number of polymorpho nuclear leucocytes (PMNLs) in the anterior urethra (1).
The condition can be associated with complications including acute epididymitis, orchitis, and prostatitis (4).
