What Is Interstitial Cystitis?
4. Pain
Perhaps the most noticeable of the symptoms of interstitial cystitis is pain. This will typically mean pain in the pelvic area, and pain when the bladder becomes full. The pain will also often be relieved when the patient urinates. They can also experience pain during sex and at other times pain will be felt in between anus and the scrotum or vagina.
Another typical symptom of the condition is a near constant need to urinate. The patient will need to make frequent trips to the bathroom day and night. Frequent trips to the bathroom can also mean the patient is tired the following day as they struggle to get enough sleep.
