What is interstitial cystitis?
user
Interstitial cystitis is a chronic condition in which the bladder produces the wrong balance of a hormone called prostaglandin.  The urine becomes increasingly concentrated and irritates the bladder, causing bladder inflammation and pain.

In some cases, it can be quite painful.  Sometimes people have an increased awareness of their bladder and experience the feeling of needing to urinate more frequently.

It can be very painful.  The pain can come and go throughout the day, and I recommend looking into ways to reduce the pain.  I would suggest asking a doctor about the different options available to you.
