A member asked:

Can the facet block cause a rupture in the adomen?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not usually: If you can't void, your kidneys and bladder are more likely to be damaged than the rare possibility of bladder rupture. Get the problem treated because bladder and kidney failure is nothing to take lightly.
