<\/p>\nIn such a situation, the question arises if someone holds urine for 6 hours, what could the consequences be? Can this cause any harm to health?<\/p>\n
In general, doctors recommend releasing urine once every three hours, but sometimes such situations arise that we have to hold urine. Politicians, athletes, and actors and singers who perform live in concerts often have to hold urine for several hours.<\/p>\n
This is a serious problem in our country. Men stop their vehicles on the road and pass urine anywhere, while women often have to keep their urine in their own homes. If guests have come to the house and the way to the bathroom passes in front of them, then women cannot use the bathroom for many hours because of hesitation. This hesitation isn’t about doing it herself, if she goes to the bathroom in the meantime then she’ll get a cheeky tag for nothing. This is not just gossip, I myself have seen this delay between mother and sister in my own house. Because of this he also suffered from UTI infection and kidney stone problems.<\/p>\n
so today’In the medical record<\/strong>‘ I will tell you how long someone can hold urine. You will also learn that-<\/p>\n\n
\nDoes the size of the urinary bladder change with age?<\/li>\n What are the dangers of holding urine too long?<\/li>\n Can holding urine for too long cause death?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\nHow often do you need to pass urine to stay healthy?<\/strong><\/p>\nMost people pass urine 6-7 times every 24 hours. If a person passes urine 4 to 10 times a day and his life is not affected by it, then he can be considered healthy. Doctors recommend that a healthy adult passes urine approximately once every 3 hours. This frequency may vary with age because the size of the urinary bladder also changes with age. It also depends on how much fluid one consumes throughout the day.<\/p>\n
This means that a healthy adult can store 300-400 ml of fluid in the bladder. Its size also increases when necessary, but because of this one has to face pain, discomfort and infection.<\/p>\n
Normally, when our bladder is a little more than half full, it starts to give us a signal to release urine. This is a natural call. So, every time we ignore this signal from the bladder, we take ourselves closer to problems.<\/p>\n
What problems can occur from holding urine for a long time?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
\nIn general, if a healthy person holds urine for a few hours from time to time, it does not cause any problem.<\/li>\n If there is already a problem in the urinary tract, bladder or kidney then the problem can increase.<\/li>\n If a healthy person often holds back urine, they can suffer from many problems.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\nNow let us understand all the points given in the graphic in detail:<\/em><\/p>\nthere is pain and discomfort<\/strong><\/p>\nIf someone continues to ignore the urge to urinate regularly or often, they may suffer from pain in the urinary bladder or kidneys. A strange uncomfortable situation can arise. There may also be pain when urinating. Even after this, sometimes the muscles continue to contract, which can cause cramps in the pelvic area.<\/p>\n
It can cause a urinary tract infection<\/strong><\/p>\nSometimes holding urine for too long can cause bacteria to grow. This can cause a urinary tract infection (UTI).<\/p>\n
This is why doctors recommend avoiding holding urine for long periods as it can increase the risk of UTI. Those people who have had a UTI problem before are at greater risk.<\/p>\n
If someone does not drink enough water and other fluids, he or she is also more likely to develop a UTI. This happens because without fluids the urge to urinate will not arise. This can cause bacteria to spread in the urinary tract and cause an infection.<\/p>\n
When a UTI occurs, such symptoms may appear:<\/em><\/p>\nThe urinary bladder may stretch<\/strong><\/p>\nIf a person stops urinating repeatedly for several days, then there may be stress in the urinary bladder. This will weaken the bladder’s ability to expand and contract naturally, making it difficult or sometimes impossible to release urine.<\/p>\n
If a person’s bladder has expanded too much due to stress, a catheter, ie an artificial urinary tube, may be needed to provide relief.<\/p>\n
The pelvic muscles can be damaged<\/strong><\/p>\nRepeated retention of urine can cause damage to the muscles in the pelvic area. The job of some of these muscles is to control urine. If these are damaged then it will be difficult to hold urine for some time.<\/p>\n
\n
\nThese pelvic floor muscles can be strengthened by doing Kegels exercises.<\/li>\n This can help repair this muscle damage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\nmay have kidney stones<\/strong><\/p>\nRegular retention of urine for long periods of time can lead to kidney stones in people who have had stones or have high levels of minerals in their urine. Urine often contains uric acid and minerals such as calcium oxalate.<\/p>\n
Can holding urine for a long time cause death?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
\nIn general, the risk of death from urinary retention is negligible, but if the infection caused by it is not prevented, it can lead to death.<\/li>\n If someone holds back urine for a very long time, the body automatically loses control over the bladder when capacity is exceeded. Because of this, urine is passed even without wanting to.<\/li>\n In some rare cases, it can happen that, due to holding urine for a long time, the pressure on the bladder increases and it bursts. In such a condition, immediate medical assistance is required. This is a fatal situation.<\/li>\n So, as important as it is to drink water on time, it is equally important to release urine on time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\nThere’s more news…<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n(Except translation, this story has not been edited by achinews staff and is published from a syndicated feed.)
