The bladder is a mighty strong muscle and is unlikely to rupture just because you declined the opportunity to urinate. It's much more likely that well before the bladder burst, the urge to void would simply take over, and you would urinate whether you wanted to or not. However, the bladder can rupture under certain circumstances, such as:

  • Major trauma, for example a pelvic fracture
  • Surgical complication
  • A bladder tumor that weakens a portion of the muscular bladder wall
  • Damage to the bladder from radiation

What happens when the bladder gets too full?

When the bladder gets too full, it signals the brain to empty it by feeling the need to urinate. If the bladder continues to get overly full without being emptied, it can lead to discomfort, a feeling of urgency, and potentially leakage or urinary retention. In extreme cases, it can cause the bladder to stretch, leading to urinary incontinence or other bladder problems.


How long can you hold your urine until your bladder explodes?

Usually it will partially empty itself against your will as nature's way to prevent it from exploding. But if you have a full bladder in a car accident or play contact sports with a full bladder - and a surprising number of people do - and you are struck in the pelvic area, it can burst upward through the dome into your pelvic cavity, causing a life threatening medical emergency.
