Which symptom is NOT typically associated with cystitis?

Frequent urination
Lower abdominal pain
Night blindness
Urge incontinence

The correct answer is: Night blindness

Cystitis is an inflammation of the bladder often caused by a urinary tract infection (UTI) and is characterized by several common symptoms. Frequent urination is a hallmark sign, as the inflammation can irritate the bladder, prompting individuals to feel the need to urinate more often. Lower abdominal pain is also a frequent symptom, as the inflammation can lead to discomfort in the pelvic area. Urge incontinence, which is the involuntary loss of urine associated with a sudden, strong urge to urinate, can also occur due to the bladder's irritation. Night blindness, however, is not a symptom associated with cystitis. Night blindness, or difficulty seeing in low light conditions, is typically related to issues with the eyes or vitamin A deficiency rather than urinary tract conditions. Understanding the distinct symptoms associated with various medical conditions is essential for diagnosis and management.
