WHAT IS THE MEANING OF A DISTENDED BLADDER AND WHAT ARE SOME OTHER WORDS USED FOR IT INSTEAD OF DISTENDED BLADDER ?
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor, and thanks for the query. A distended bladder means a bladder completely stretched and full of urine. It will occur if you voluntarily hold urine or else you are in retention of urine. It can be called as hypocontractile bladder or else it could be due to bladder outlet obstruction. Investigations like ultrasound, cystoscopy and aerodynamic studies may help diagnose the cause and help fix the problematize care
