Question : I drunk 2 liters of cranberry juice in 2 days. Now I have a pressure in my lower abdomen and a slight pelvic pain when I pee.

Brief Answer:
May be due to excessive urine in bladder

Detailed Answer:
hello
Thanks for query .

What was the reason for you to drink 2 liters of juice ?Did you have any urinary issue or UTI?

Cranberry juice has a diuretic effect producing more urine .
Since you have drunk 2 liters of Cranbery juice over a short period ,your kidneys are producing more urine resulting into bladder getting filled up than its normal capacity causing pain in lower abdomen and pain while passing urine .

The effect will wane away gradually within a day or two and things will settled down spontaneously .

Hope I have answered your query ,please feel free to ask if you have more questions,I shall be happy to help you
Thanks and Regards.

I know it sounds silly however I just really like cranberry juice, a little less now ha ha ha. It has been about 3 days now since experiencing this issue. However it has lessened a bit in day 3. Should I just continue to wait it out?
