'Urethral syndrome'
This is what doctors call it when you (a woman) continually turn up in their office complaining of a UTI, but nothing shows up in your pee and you don't have IC. In the bad old days, you'd be officially classified as a drain of the doctor's time and resources. Typically, you'll undergo fun procedures like having your pee-tube stretched, and they might give you tranquilisers - apparently to relax your hypothesised spasming pelvic floor muscles. Well, turns out, according to this article that you might have 'female prostratis' - i.e., an infection of little tiny glands attached to the urethra. It results in an area of tenderness on the front wall of the vagina.
