Boy with bladder holding urine

Many people have personal experience of urinating. It is very painful and disappointing. Sometimes holding back urine once or twice may not have a big impact on the human body, but if you habitually hold back urine for a long time, you should pay attention, as this may have a certain impact on the human body. So what are the effects of holding back urine for a long time? What will happen if you hold your bladder in for a long time?

1. Holding urine for a long time makes it difficult to urinate. Sometimes, the longer urine stays in the body, the harder it becomes to come out. This is because long-term urination causes the urethral sphincter to become numb, and the contraction and release of the pressure become slower and slower, so the urine is not easily discharged, and even when the urine is discharged, it will be very slow.

2. Faint. I don't know if you have had such personal experience. After a long period of urination, you can go to the bathroom, but you may feel dizzy when you urinate. This type of symptom usually occurs at night, but may occur during the day. The reason for this situation is that urine remains in the body for too long, causing hypotension caused by obstruction of the left ventricle and contraction of blood vessels, resulting in a lack of blood supply to the human brain. If the coma lasts for about three minutes and the patient wakes up on his own, there are generally no complications, but there are exceptions.

3. Frequent urination, urgency and urinary incontinence. Long-term urinary retention can cause the bladder sphincter to relax, resulting in reduced coordination and even loss of control of spontaneous urination, resulting in frequent urination, urgency and urinary incontinence. People who hold urine for a long time must pay more attention to it.
