In men: extreme difficulty in urination, to the extent that all that results is a slow painful discharge, a drop at a time, caused by spasmodic contraction of the bladder and urethra. From Greek (via Latin): 'stranx' (drop, trickle) and 'ourein' (to urinate).
From John de Trevisa's 1398 translation of de Glenville's De proprietatibus rerum
"He that hath that dysease ... that hyghte Stranguria, pysseth often and lytyll".
