Can you tell me what you suggest if one has weakness in the lower part of the body, legs, bladder what does that mean?

Risky situation: Your description suggests a progression extrinsic compression of spinal cord, such as within the neck, but one might also have issues within the lower back area, called "cauda equina syndrome". Need to see a doctor asap, as this could be a serious situation.
