Overactive Bladder Medical Guide

Individuals that experience an involuntary contraction of the main muscle that is within the wall of the bladder that is considered to be sudden may eventually come to suffer from the condition that is known as overactive bladder.

Despite the fact that only a small amount of fluid may be within the bladder of the sufferer, they will experience the discomfort associated with the urgent need to relieve themselves of that fluid.

This is often referred to by medical professionals as urinary urgency. Many may refer to an overactive bladder as a condition known as urge incontinence. This condition is known to result in urine loss that is unintentional.

Contributing Factors

There are many contributing factors that may lead to the onset of overactive bladder. In most instances, this situation occurs as a direct result of spasms within the bladder. The spasms are directly associated with the muscles that are part of the bladder.

When the muscles contract, the individual that experiences it feels the urgent need to urinate. It has been established that this condition occurs when there are complications associated with both the muscles as well as the nerves that are directly connected to the bladder.

The main muscle, which is identified as "Detrusor", is one that is directly regulated by the nervous system of the body. Those that have an overactive bladder often experience an inappropriate contraction of this muscle.

Many medical professionals have established that there are many neurological based abnormalities that may result in the onset of overactive bladder. Those that have experienced or are experiencing the following complications may experience this urinary system complication:

• Those that have experienced a mini-stroke or a major stroke may suffer from the need to relieve their bladder frequently.

• If an individual suffer from brain disorders or disorders that affect the brain such as dementia, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, or diabetic based neuropathy they may suffer from overactive bladder.

• Many individuals may suffer from this bladder condition if they experience simple issues such as an infection, bladder stones, and even tumors that occur in and/or near the bladder.

Risks

There are many factors that make an individual more susceptible to developing an overactive bladder. Most of the time, age is the leading factor when it comes to bladder issues. It has been determined that those over the age of seventy are at risk for developing this condition.

It has also been established that if a female experiences several different pregnancies, she may be at risk for developing this condition. Many individuals that suffer from certain medical conditions such as diabetes, Parkinson's disease, and those that involve the central nervous system may be at risk for developing an overactive bladder. If you feel an increased urgency when it comes to urination, it is important to be evaluated by a medical professional.
