The three types of cystitis are:
Acute cystitis:
Acute cystitis is a sudden and often severe inflammation of the bladder, typically caused by a bacterial infection. Symptoms include a strong, persistent urge to urinate, a burning sensation when urinating, cloudy or strong-smelling urine, and lower abdominal pain. The condition is usually treated with antibiotics and pain relievers, and most people recover fully within a few days to a week.
Interstitial cystitis:
Interstitial cystitis, also known as bladder pain syndrome, is a chronic condition that causes pain and pressure in the bladder, often accompanied by an urgent need to urinate and frequency of urination. The exact cause of interstitial cystitis is unknown, but it may be related to an autoimmune reaction or nerve damage in the bladder. There is no cure for interstitial cystitis, but treatment options include pain relievers, bladder instillations, and physical therapy.
Hemorrhagic cystitis:
Hemorrhagic cystitis is a condition in which there is bleeding into the bladder, often as a result of radiation therapy or chemotherapy. Symptoms include painful urination, blood in the urine, and low back pain. Treatment may involve medications to relieve pain and prevent further bleeding, as well as blood transfusions if the bleeding is severe. In some cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to stop the bleeding and repair the damage to the bladder.
