Bladder Problems

Bladder problems encompass a range of conditions that affect the bladder’s ability to store or release urine properly. Common issues include urinary tract infections (UTis), which cause discomfort and frequent urges to urinate, and overactive bladder (OAB), where sudden, uncontrollable urges can interfere with daily activities. Other concerns include interstitial cystitis, a chronic inflammation of the bladder leading to pain and frequent urination, and incontinence, which involves involuntary urine leakage due to stress or urgency. Bladder stones can also form, causing pain, difficulty urinating, or blood in the urine. These problems can significantly impact quality of life and often require medical evaluation and treatment to address underlying causes and symptoms.
