My Bladder
Oh My bladder I must protest
The patient really put me to the test
Oh, bladder, just hold on a little bit longer
My sphincter muscles just got to be stronger
They say Kegels will help strengthen my muscles
And also eating a lot of Brussels
But when I feel a little sneeze come from the head
There is always that trickle running down my leg
I really love to go outside for fresh air
Do not sneeze my nose, just hold it there
Otherwise I will have to run and hide
And then to wear a diaper tight
Stay strong for me, will you
Squeeze that muscles that is due
Do not ever forget
Or the panties will be wet
As the days and months went on
My muscles started getting strong
And as I learned to cope
I discovered the meaning of hope.
An original poem by Kenneth Kee
The bladder is a round, bag-like organ that keeps the urine to a certain volume after which it is passed out.
It is sited in the pelvic area, just below the kidneys and right behind the pelvic bone.
While it is essentially a human storage tank, it is very complicated in its design.
The bladder is normally the size of a large grapefruit.
It can stretch much larger when required, though, and shrinks back when it is empty.
In fact, it can retain around 16 ounces (almost half a liter) of urine at one time for two to five hours comfortably).
It is normal to urinate around 6 to 8 times in a 24-hour period.
More frequent trips to the bathroom may indicate a disorder with the bladder, though it is frequent to urinate more as one becomes older.
The bladder is attached to the kidneys by two long tubes called ureters.
When urine is produced by the kidneys, it moves down the ureters to the bladder, where it is stored.
The bladder has 4 layers:
1.From the inside out, the epithelium is the first layer on the inside of the bladder.
It functions as the outer lining for the bladder.
2.The lamina propria is the next layer.
It comprises connective tissue, muscle and blood vessels.
3.Wrapped around the lamina propria is the third layer called the muscularis propria or detrusor muscle. This layer comprises thick, smooth muscle bundles.
4.The final, outer layer is the peri-vesical soft tissue, which is composed of fat, fibrous tissue and blood vessels.
The other parts of the bladder are sited at the bottom of the bladder.
An opening at the bottom of the bladder is joined to the urethra.
A circular, muscular sphincter squeezes tight to keep the opening and the urethra from leaking urine.
When a person urinates, the detrusor muscles tighten to squeeze the urine out of the bladder while the sphincter relaxes to open the opening of the bladder and urethra.
The opening at the bottom of the bladder empties urine into the urethra where it then drains from the body.
Many diseases and disorders can begin in the bladder
1.Leakage and frequent urges often are caused by the reduced capacity of the bladder and over activity of the bladder.
An overactive bladder can be produced by a wide variety of disorders, such as constipation and excess caffeine in the system.
2.Bladder infections or cystitis cause frequent urination
About 33% of all females get a bladder infection at least once.
3.Bladder inflammation from autoimmune or interstitial cystitis can cause painful urination or abdomen.
4.A bladder cancer may present with blood in urine, painful urination and back or pelvic pain.
5.An anterior prolapse of the bladder into the vagina or cystocele is a problem specific to females
6.Bladder stones are produced by concentrated urine that crystalizes in the bladder
