Ophthalmologist,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. Single symptom does not appear to be that of ALS
2. ALS is characterized by stiff muscles, twitching, progressive muscle weakness with wasting. Electromyography and nerve conduction velocity will help in confirmation.
3. Your symptoms are not progressive and single bladder involvement, which was secondary to spine muscle damage, is the cause.
4. Bladder training, pelvic muscle exercises and good hydration will be helpful.

Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
