Bladder Pain Syndrome (BPS) / Interstitial Cystitis

Bladder Pain Syndrome (BPS), also known as Interstitial Cystitis, is a chronic condition causing pelvic pain, pressure, and discomfort in the bladder and surrounding areas. It often leads to frequent and urgent urination and can significantly affect daily activities and quality of life. The exact cause is unclear, but it may involve bladder lining defects, nerve hypersensitivity, or autoimmune factors. Early diagnosis and proper management with medications, lifestyle changes, and bladder therapies help relieve symptoms and improve quality of life.
