Question 1

what side of your body is the bladder on?

Accepted Answer

Neither side: Bladder is normally located in midline at base of abdominal cavity.

Question 2

i've quickly developed permanent spasticity in lower left side of my body, bladder, leg. muscle bloodwork has been ruled out. what else can this be?

Accepted Answer

Needs attention: spasticity is a symptom of a disorder of either the brain or spinal cord.  I would recommend a neurological consult in the near future.

Question 3

i had gall bladder removal 7/29.. i haver at least 10 or more bm a day and now have pain on left sidfe of body.. not near navel ..on side of body and lower back?

Accepted Answer

: The current diarrhea is unlikely related to the gallbladder surgery 3 weeks ago unless you are on a prolonged antibiotic course. You probably have an acute gastroenteritis, recall what you ate out in the previous 24 hours. You should hydrate well and eat light diet in the next 24 hours, try Imodium (OTC) every 4-6 hours as needed to slow down the watery stool. Symptoms should improve in 24 hours.

Question 4

i had a cystectomy in 2013...no bladder and i wear a urostomy bag at all times. i have flu like symptons...body aches, left side hurts worse, get hot and cold and when i empty my bag the urine is thick and a little cloudy?

Accepted Answer

: The question is whether the urostomy bag contains crystal sediment,mucus buildup or pyuria, a sign of bacteria build up. If it's pyuria from bacteria, is it just colonization with one or more bacteria species or is it a symptomatic infection? In view of your symptoms, I suspect a urinary tract infection &amp; you should call your MD for instructions, testing&amp; begin antibiotics until results are back.

Question 5

rlq pain/tenderness for 10 days now, it's bearable but annoying. sometimes moves to side of my body. tends to be worse when i have a full bladder. ?

Accepted Answer

Further evaluation: You should have imaging of your bladder and possibly your kidney done.  It could be an infection and/or a kidney stone causing these symptoms.

Question 6

pain on left side when bladder is full?

Accepted Answer

And pain: Many things could cause this.  Get a sonogram of bladder and kidneys and get evaluated for an abdominal hernia.

Question 7

i have a pain in my side and bladder. what is it?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor: The symptoms you describe are worrisome for either a urinary tract infection spreading to your kidney (do you have a fever?) or a kidney stone.  You should see a doctor soon.

Question 8

what functions does the bladder have for the body?

Accepted Answer

Waste removal: Our bladder is responsible for collecting and storing our body's waste, in the form of urine, for removal and elimination through an outflow tract which differs depending upon one's gender.

Question 9

when i have a full bladder especially in the morning, i have an extreme amount of pain on my lower right side and when i use the restroom i have pain.

Accepted Answer

Bladder pain: You may be overstretching the detrusor muscle of your bladder which can cause bladder spasms. If you continue to have pain when you void you may need an emanation and urine tests to rule infection or other problems.

Question 10

i have pain in the right side close to bladder. i don't have other symptoms only pain when i bend over sometimes. i have done some tests by myself for apendacitis and i don't think that i have. only think that i worried that i have pain when i cough?

Accepted Answer

: If the pain is persistent, see your doctor for evaluation and treatment. This discomfort could be due to a muscle strain, for example. But, the only way to know for sure is to examine you and obtain tests, if needed. You may need a CT scan, for example. So, see your doctor. Good luck to you!
