Chronic cystitis in women
Patients suffering from inflammation of the bladder, often stop taking medicines, feeling better. Such levity leads to the fact that women develop chronic cystitis. Symptoms and treatment of this disease - the information necessary for anyone who wants to permanently or permanently get rid of pain.
When harmful bacteria get on the mucous membrane of the bladder, an acute inflammatory process begins. If the measures taken were insufficient, it becomes chronic - microorganisms penetrate the walls of the body, deforming it. For a while this pathology can almost not disturb a person, but during periods of exacerbation the symptoms are very painful. Forecasts are encouraging: if you act as experts recommend, you can cure cystitis forever.
How does a sick urea behave?
The clinical picture characteristic of cystitis is the same at all stages of the disease, but it has a different frequency and intensity of manifestations. In chronic inflammation of the bladder are observed:
- pain while urinating;
- frequent desire to urinate;
- incomplete emptying of the bladder;
- wavy pains in the pubic region, sometimes extending to the entire lower abdomen.
In some cases, the following signs may indicate a prolonged infection of the genitourinary system:
- nocturia - strong urge to urinate during a night's sleep;
- dysuria - a continuous desire to urinate.
Chronic cystitis in women may also give no symptoms, except for a slight discomfort in the genital area and frequent urination. But this does not mean that treatment is not required.
The aggravation of cystitis is easily recognized, as noted:
- burning and cramping when urine passes;
- frequent urination;
- heaviness and pain in the abdomen;
- turbidity of urine; there may be an admixture of blood in it;
- in severe cases - nausea, vomiting, fever.

- electrophoresis on the lower part of the peritoneum;
- UHF to areas of pain;
- mud or paraffin baths;
- diadynamic therapy or amplipulse therapy (electrostimulation of the sore spot).
