botox bladder injections

 Botox bladder injections are used to treat frequent urination, blurred vision or the need to urinate frequently due to urinary incontinence. The botulinum toxin is injected into the bladder and paralyzes it, allowing the patient to control their need to urinate. The treatment is minimally invasive and generally works within a month of treatment.


What Are Botox Bladder Injections?


Botulinum toxin injections are most commonly used in cosmetic treatments, such as smoothing wrinkles on the face. However, this protein can also be used for other purposes. It has been shown to be effective in treating chronic migraines, overactive bladder and more.


Treating Overactive Bladder with Botox


Overactive bladder is a condition where your bladder contracts without warning. This can cause you to feel the urge to urinate frequently, even if your bladder isn't full. Having overactive bladder can interfere with your daily life, causing you to make more trips to the bathroom than normal. To treat this condition, a urologist will inject small amounts of botulinum toxin into your bladder muscle. This relaxes the muscle so that you have more time between feeling the urge to urinate and when you actually have to go to the bathroom.
