Interstitial cystitis (IC) is a chronic bladder problem caused by inflammation or irritation of the bladder wall. In IC, scarring of the bladder causes the bladder to stiffen, decreasing the amount of urine it can comfortably hold. IC is sometimes called bladder pain syndrome, or frequency-urgency-dysuria syndrome.
These muscles must relax to allow for urination and bowel movements, and women must be able to relax these muscles during sexual intercourse. Many people with IC have problems with this group of muscles and develop a condition called pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD).elaxing the muscles in the pelvic floor area overall is important, and warm baths or hot tubs twice a day can be helpful. In addition, low doses of muscle relaxants such as Valium (diazepam - 2 mg three times a day) may be helpful.
