4. Pressure and Pain in the Lower Abdomen
As well as feeling pain during urination though, you might also feel pain the rest of the time. So, it doesn’t really matter what you do! This will often be felt as a dull pain in the lower abdomen which can be hard to explain if you don’t notice the other symptoms.
In this case, you are experiencing inflammation in the bladder which is just the same as inflammation that affects any bruise or twisted ankle. The job of inflammation is to rush blood and nutrients to the region, thereby aiding with the repair of tissue and speeding up recovery. At the same time, this will also help to halt the progress of bacteria by making it harder for it to move around.
The purpose of inflammation and fever alike is generally to make your body ‘less habitable’ for germs and viruses. While the symptoms themselves aren’t very nice, you will probably agree that it’s in the name of a good cause! This pain might also be felt as a dull pressure without specific pain. This is simply the result of your bladder pushing on surrounding tissue and organs!
