Q

how stress causes FIC

A

stress:

  • activates sns and cathecholamine and adrenaline levels rise
  • permeability of the urothelium changes
  • activates inflammatory mechanisms
  • substances of urine pass to activate nerve fibers C

Q

what happens when sensitive nerves fibres are activated during stress by substances passing from urine?

A

pain signal to brain
release of “substance P” neurotransmitter
contraction of bladder and urethra wall
-> secondary edema and increased vascular permeability
mast cell activation-> histamine-> inflammation and edema

=> more nerve fibres C are activated
