Bladder condition, diagnosis unknown?
|
|
As you can probably tell from my username, I am a nursing student. All of my mother's friends now feel the need to tell me their medical problems through my mother so that I can learn about their conditions. (It is beneficial because I can usually figure out what they are describing and then research about the medical diagnosis and treatments. It is of academic interest only to me, I know not to share my findings with the patients.)
This time, however, I am stumped. The condition is described as a small hole in the bladder that allows air into the urine stream, causing the passage of bursts of air when the patient urinates, like flatus in the urine. Do you have any idea of what this condition is and what the proper term is? I would be interested in knowing the mechanism of the condition, but can do the research if I can just get the proper terminology.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
