What Is Interstitial Cystitis?
9. Therapy
Physical therapy can help to relieve problems caused by abnormalities with muscles and connective tissues. Other types of therapy will involve nerve stimulation, which involves the use of wires to deliver electrical impulses to certain parts of the patient’s body. This can help to trigger certain substances that will help to block some of the pain.
The therapy can also help to strengthen the muscles that are responsible for controlling the bladder. A similar therapy may be used to help reduce the urgency to urinate. Another potential treatment is using water to help stretch the bladder in order to increase its capacity.
