3. Passing small and infrequent amounts of urine
Another sign that could be indicative of cystitis is if you pass small and infrequent amounts of urine. When you’re suffering from cystitis, your bladder will be too inflamed to release urine on a regular basis. This could lead to you only being able to pass small amounts of urine whenever you go to the bathroom.
You may have even had a strong urge to pee but found that you could only release a small portion of that tension upon reaching the bathroom. This is due to the fact that your bladder will halt the release of urine once it detects the inflammatory response. If your cystitis is the result of a bacterial infection in your urinary tract then this may be even more pronounced as the pain will halt the flow of urine.
