Overview
Cystitis must be differentiated from other causes of dysuria such as acute pyelonephritis, urethritis, prostatitis, vulvovaginitis, urethral strictures or diverticula, benign prostatic hyperplasia and neoplasms such as renal cell carcinoma and cancers of the bladder, prostate, and penis. It must also be differentiated from sexually transmitted diseases such as syphilis.[1][2][3]

- Benign prostatic hyperplasia
- Genital Herpes

The differential of Cystitis can be elaborated with the following table.
