The bladder is an organ in your lower abdomen that collects urine. Many conditions can affect your bladder.
Some common ones are:
• Overactive Bladder - a condition in which the bladder squeezes urine out at the wrong time
• Urinary Incontinence - loss of bladder control
• Cystitis - inflammation of the bladder, often from an infection
• Interstitial Cystitis- a chronic problem that causes bladder pain and frequent, urgent urination
Doctors diagnose bladder diseases using different tests. The Urology Diagnoistic Clinic (UDC) in Dubai provides urine tests, x-rays, and an examination of the bladder wall with a scope called a cystoscope.
Treatment depends on the cause of the problem. It may include medicines and in severe cases, surgery.
