Experts weigh in on the factors that can take the tendency to hold one’s pee from harmless to harmful. While it may seem like a minor inconvenience, consistently delaying the urge to urinate can lead to serious health complications.
Holding in urine can stretch the bladder beyond its normal capacity, potentially causing damage to the bladder muscles and leading to urinary retention. This condition can make it difficult to fully empty the bladder, which increases the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs). Additionally, prolonged retention can result in bladder overactivity, resulting in frequent urges and discomfort.
Furthermore, experts warn that for some individuals, particularly those with pre-existing health conditions, the act of holding in urine can trigger more severe issues such as kidney damage. It’s crucial for individuals to listen to their bodies and respond to natural urges promptly. Prioritizing regular bathroom breaks can help maintain urinary health and prevent potential complications.
