Bladder diverticulum
Hi sir, My father had a surgery 2-3 years back for gallbladder removal. Since last few months, he's complaining about lot of sweating, bloating, gas and a buzzing sound near heart area or maybe below that. He has done all the checkups for heart and overall there was no issue. He also has bladder diverticulum surgery planned in future, can these symptoms be because of the diverticulum, he had blood in his stools recently but he said this happened to him since childhood, also he applies more pressure to empty his bladder. Please guide me sir what to do. He has recently went to the surgeon, he gave some meds for the time being, gastric and anti infection medicine.. Please sir guide me what can this be related to. I don't want anything to happen to my father as well as I can't see him being so tensed all the time!

Bloating gas are upper GI tract symptoms May be associated GERD/ food habits and so on Urinary Bladder diverticulim is not associated with above symptoms But incomplete emptying of Urinary bladder is associated with bladder diverticula. It may be related to BPH in old age. Or any thing dats obstructing urine flow. So the pressure causes the bladder to out pouch. Needs to see what is blocking the urine flow Great the thing blocking urine flow also Other thing ur telling is bleeding in stools needs examination +/- proctoscopy
