Interstitial cystitis (Runner's ulcer) is a syndrome rather than a specific entity. It is characterized by marked frequency (day and night) with severe pain occurring suprapubically in the right or left lower quadrant, in the urethra, vagina, rectum, groin or perineum, if voiding has to be postponed. Many of the patients give a history of bladder symptoms completely resistant to all forms of treatment for many years. Many patients are tense, nervous women who often have been labeled neurotic. A careful history may reveal additional symptoms of an irritable colon.Interstitial cystitis occurs most commonly in women more than 40 years old. However, Hand described the condition in girls as young as 13 and occasionally in male subjects. Some investigators believe the condition is relatively commonplace. Hand found interstitial cystitis in 4.79 per cent of his patients who underwent cystoscopy between 1930 and 1946. 1
