"مضاضة" - Translation from Arabic to English

To make matters worse, even when a Member is allowed to participate, its representative is only called upon to take a seat at the Security Council table, but must keep mum.
والأشد مضاضة من ذلك أن ممثل الدولة العضو يدعى إلى الجلوس على طاولة المجلس، ولكن يجب أن يظل صامتا.
