NYC Pelvic Doctor

Cystitis refers to the medical condition when your bladder is inflamed, swollen and tender, or more simply put, a urinary tract infection (UTI). If you have an infected bladder, you may experience other symptoms besides pain in your lower abdomen, such as:

• Discomfort or uncomfortable pressure in your bladder
 
• A constant need to urinate, but you’re only able to urinate a little bit each time
 
• A painful burning when you urinate
 
• Blood in your urine
 
• Translucent and/or concentrated (smelly) urine
 
• Cloudy or murky urine
 
• Possible fever

Cystitis is a treatable condition, but it’s recommended that you visit your NYC gynecologist or OBGYN specialists becuase untreated cystitis (UTI) can lead to a worse condition that may require hospitalization. Besides suffering from increasingly worse symptoms, the infection can spread to your kidneys, where it’s more difficult to treat. If you experience any of the following symptoms of an infected kidney, seek medical attention:

• Pain from the area of your kidneys, which are in the back of your upper abdomen
 
• Fever
 
• Feeling nauseous or even vomiting

All symptoms should be evaluated with a thorough consultation and examination by your gynecologist in the gynecology clinic for an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan to exclude any underlying serious condition.
