YOGYAKARTA A bladder is an organ that functions to accommodate urine before being removed from the body through uretra. A bladder can experience various problems that disturb its normal function and cause complications. So, what are the characteristics of the bladder having problems?
Problems in the bladder can be caused by many factors, such as bacterial infections, hormonal changes, certain medical conditions, and an unhealthy lifestyle.
By knowing the characteristics of the bladder with problems, it is easier for doctors to carry out examinations and determine the cause of problems that occur in the bladder. After that, doctors can provide appropriate treatment according to the causes and severity.
Compiled from various sources, here are some problematic bladder characteristics that need to be watched out for:
One of the characteristics of the problematic bladder is that it cannot hold back urination. In medical, this condition is called urine incontinence.
Urine incontinence is usually caused by increased intraabdomentary pressure, such as when coughing, sneezing, or exercise. This happens because the bladder muscles are too weak so they are unable to hold back urination when the bladder receives pressure.
Red color in urine can be a characteristic or sign of a problematic bladder. This color change shows blood in urine. These conditions can be caused by various factors, such as urinary tract infection, bladder cancer, and bladder inflammation.
Blood mixed with urine can also be pink or brownish. In some cases, urine that contains blood can only be detected through a microscope while undergoing a urine test.
The next problematic bladder characteristics are difficulty urinating. This condition is known as urine retention, where the bladder cannot fully urine, making it difficult for a person to urinate.
Urine retention can be caused by many things, ranging from clogging of the bladder tract, impaired nervous system, and weakened bladder muscles.
The frequency of urinating too often (more than 6-8 times a day) is also a sign of problems in the bladder.
Significant increase in the frequency of urinating, either during the day or at night, is generally carried out by an unconscious contraction in the bladder muscles. In fact, this happens when the volume of urine in the bladder is still small. As a result, a person becomes more frequent urinating.

Another characteristic of the problematic bladder is pain when urinating. This condition is generally caused by the Escherichia Coli (E.Coli) bacterial infection.
Bacterial infections in urinary tracts can cause inflammation and cause pain when urinating.
