Symptoms And Diagnosis Of Interstitial Cystitis

Persistent Need To Pee

Dreamstime

Individuals with interstitial cystitis tend to have a persistent need to pee. The need also tends to be more urgent than in other individuals. The severity of this symptom will vary from person to person, and some patients might experience relief in their symptoms between flare-ups. One of the possible causes of the condition is a defect in the bladder's protective lining, which leads to feeling the need to urinate more frequently. Leaks in this protective lining can also cause toxic substances found in the urine to irritate the bladder.
