What is Interstitial Cystitis?
Interstitial Cystitis (IC) is a chronic bladder condition characterised by recurring pain, pressure, and frequent or urgent urination. It is not caused by infection, and traditional UTI treatments are often ineffective. Symptoms can worsen due to stress, diet, or certain activities. Carrying an ICE card allows emergency responders and healthcare providers to recognise your condition immediately and tailor their response to avoid unnecessary interventions or discomfort.
