A member asked:
Can sitting on soft surfaces for too long effect the bladder?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: The bladder doesn't know what kind of surface a person is sitting on. The person just has to get up from that soft surface and go pee every few hours. It would be like taking a flight from San Francisco to London... have to get out of that chair and go pee.
