@dr.mayareed: This is exactly what happens in your body when you get cystitis. Normally, your bladder is completely sterile. But when bacteria make their way into the urinary tract, they attach to the bladder wall and trigger severe inflammation. This happens much more frequently in women due to a shorter urethra, which gives bacteria an easier path. The infection swells the lining, irritating your receptors. That is why you experience severe burning during urination and frequent urges even when your bladder is empty. Never leave this untreated, as the infection can travel to your kidneys and become a serious medical problem. Prioritize your body and follow Dr. Maya Reed for more daily health insights. #cystitis #uti #bladderinfection #womenshealth #medicalfacts
