Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I Had A Ct Scan That Showed Bladder Wall Thickening
I had a ct scan that showed bladder wall thickening with incomplete distention. What does this mean? I have extreme pelvic/bladder pain, frequent/urgent need to urinate, sometime taking a while or only drips. Also, I have low back pain. What could this be? All urinalysis is negative for everything including std.
You may have chronic cystitis. Increased bladder wall thickness means there is chronic inflammatory condition like chronic cystitis.
All of the above mentioned problems are may be due to chronic cystitis only.
Please check for prostate size too.
BPH can also cause this.
Investigation needed.
USG abdomen and pelvis.
Serum PSA.
Hope this will help you
Thank you!
