I believe that everyone must have heard of gastroptosis and breast ptosis, but never heard of bladder ptosis. This is no joke. In medicine, there is indeed such a disease as bladder ptosis, and it is harmful to a certain extent. So, what are the symptoms of bladder ptosis and how to treat it?

Symptoms of bladder prolapse

The main manifestation of bladder prolapse is urinary incontinence. You may often have difficulty urinating, wanting to go to the toilet but unable to urinate. After leaving the toilet, you will feel very urgent to urinate. In severe cases, you may also have symptoms of urinary incontinence. This is mainly caused by poor spleen and stomach function. Therefore, it is best to pay more attention to conditioning in daily life and try to eat foods that can strengthen the spleen and replenish qi. This has a good therapeutic effect on bladder prolapse, or surgery can be used for treatment.

Surgical treatment

There are two surgical methods for bladder prolapse: manual reduction and surgical suspension. Manual reduction is to gently push the bladder back to its original position under anesthesia with the hand, a straight urethral metal probe or a cystoscope. Incomplete prolapsed bladder often leads to a large amount of retained urine after reduction, and it is left in place for one week after reduction. Simply reducing the bladder without leaving a catheter is often difficult to achieve the purpose of reduction, and recurrence occurs in a short period of time. Surgical suspension is suitable for those who are ineffective in surgical reduction. The surgical method is to fix the bladder to the fascia of the anterior abdominal wall.
