A bladder problem is not something that anyone wants to deal with and it can happen to adults or children. There are all kinds of problems that can result from your bladder not functioning properly. Some of them are a lot more serious than others and it is not something you want to fool around with. You need to go to a doctor if you suspect that you have any bladder problems. I am going to tell you about two of the more common types of problems that can be caused by your bladder.
Bladder Control Problem
This is when you accidentally wet yourself and you can’t control it no matter what you do. You will end up having problems during sex, be unable to sleep, or even go out in public. One solution is to treat the symptoms and not the problem by wearing adult diapers or pads. You will probably end up with a rash, sores or bladder infections. You definitely want to find out what you can do about this problem before it gets worse and you could end up with an even more serious problem. Your doctor can prescribe an antibiotic to treat the problem and not just treat the symptom.
Urinary Tract Infection
This is something that is more common in women then it is in men because the urethra is shorter in women so bacteria will have a shorter distance to travel. It affects millions of people each year and most women will have it at least once in their life. Men are not as likely to get it but when they do a urinary tract infections can be very serious. You will need to be treated by doctor to get this taken care of because it rarely will go away on its own and can lead to more serious problems with the urethra, bladder, and the kidneys.
If you notice pain or burning when trying to urinate, a sharp or knife-like pain in your back or groin, cloudy urine, bloody urine, or fever with a backache have your physician test you for a urinary tract infection.
In summary a bladder problem can happen to anyone no matter what the age. Bladder control issues can lead to a more serious bladder infection, which can lead to even more serious issues. If you notice any change in how your bladder functions then more research is indicated. If you suspect any type of bladder problem then a trip to your physician is necessary as soon as possible.
Always consult your doctor before using this information.
