Damage to the body from prolonged urinary holding includes urinary tract infections, urinary stones, and bladder damage. The remedy is to treat the cause and develop the habit of drinking more water and urinating regularly.
1. Urinary tract infection: Urine stored in the bladder for too long can easily cause urinary tract infection. You can follow the doctor’s instructions to apply antibiotics sensitive to pathogenic bacteria, such as levofloxacin and other drugs for anti-infection treatment; you also need to pay attention to rest, drink a lot of water, and actively search for the cause of the disease for treatment.
2. Urinary stones: urine contains urea and other alkaline substances, long-term holding urine is easy to react with protein to form stones. Patients should drink more water and urinate regularly to promote the discharge of urine; for stones that have been formed, medication can be used to remove stones, ultrasonic lithotripsy, surgical removal of stones.
3. Damage to the bladder: Long-term over-expansion of the bladder due to prolonged holding of urine leads to a decrease in the contraction function of the bladder. Antibiotics can be used if infection occurs, and surgery is needed to repair the bladder if it ruptures.
After the damage caused by holding urine for a long period of time, you should go to the hospital immediately and be treated under the guidance of a professional doctor.
