I have a ruptured disc between c5-c6. I just found this out a couple of months ago. I also am suffering from a severe bladder blockage. Can my disc problem cause my bladder problem?
Yes, you may want to look up information on each level of the cervical spine and what it can affect.
For example, someone who becomes a paraplegic due to spinal cord injury in the cervical region may have bladder/bowel issues. For those who don't have a severe traumatic injury the symptoms can be based on where on the nerve the impingement is, etc. Get this checked out as soon as possible.
Thank you very much. I have contacted my surgeon and she states that it is very possible. I will finish up with the urologist first.. I appreciate your quick response.
