Question
Hello doctor,
My grandmother is 85 years old, 4 years ago she had a bladder prolapse and had to have a mesh surgery. It's been 2 weeks since I've been urinating every 1 hour. So the doctor told me the bladder prolapse was treated but still urinating a lot, why? I thank the doctor.

Hello,
With the question “The bladder prolapse has been treated but still urinating a lot, why? ”, the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Your grandmother has been treated for bladder prolapse but still urinating a lot is a symptom of bladder irritation. The doctor does not know how your grandmother's condition improves after placing the mesh, so the doctor cannot give you exact advice. You should have her have a urodynamic measurement to assess the ability to urinate and the tone of the bladder so that the appropriate medication can be given depending on the specific situation.
If you still have questions about frequent urination, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
