Symptoms of anterior vaginal wall bulging

Women have to endure a lot in their lives, and gynecological problems always surround them. Vaginal problems are also common gynecological diseases. The vagina is a very valuable organ in a woman's life, and it carries a woman's lifelong happiness. As age increases, different vaginal problems may occur, such as vaginal erosion, vaginitis, and anterior vaginal wall prolapse. So women should love themselves and be good to their bodies.

The early stages of anterior vaginal wall prolapse are not easy to detect, and the symptoms are not very obvious, which sometimes delays treatment. Therefore, we should have a certain understanding of this disease. Let’s take a look at what anterior vaginal wall prolapse is and what are its main symptoms.

Anterior vaginal wall bulging is actually bladder and urethra bulging, often accompanied by urination dysfunction. Mild prolapse usually causes no symptoms; severe prolapse may cause a feeling of incomplete urination. In order to empty the urine, patients often need to compress the vagina or manually push back the prolapsed tissue.

Causes

The female reproductive organs, including the pelvic floor muscles, fascia, and uterine ligaments, may be torn due to injury, or the anterior vaginal wall may bulge due to other reasons.

Clinical manifestations

The anterior vaginal wall bulges. In mild cases, there may be no symptoms, while in severe cases, there may be a feeling of incomplete urination. The main symptom of patients with anterior vaginal wall bulge is the feeling that something has protruded from the vagina. When the abdominal pressure increases due to labor, coughing, exertion, etc., or when there is urine accumulation in the bladder, the thing will increase in size and urine will overflow. It will shrink or even disappear after bed rest or urination. Patients experience a feeling of vaginal fullness, a feeling of pelvic heaviness, stress urinary incontinence or a feeling of incomplete urination, lumbar pain, which worsens after standing for a long time, and difficulty in sexual intercourse. The patient needs to push up on the bulging vagina with his hands to empty the urine.

Clinical classification:

Grade I (mild): The bulging of the anterior vaginal wall has reached the edge of the hymen but has not yet protruded from the vaginal opening.

Grade II (moderate): Part of the anterior vaginal wall bulges and reaches outside the vaginal opening. Grade III (severe): The anterior vaginal wall has completely bulged out of the vaginal opening.

Compared with men, women are more fragile, not only mentally but also physically. Therefore, women should pay attention to their own maintenance. When they find abnormal symptoms in their bodies, they should seek medical attention in time. Do not wait until the condition becomes serious to seek treatment. This will delay treatment and affect the effectiveness of the treatment. It is best to have regular physical examinations every three months.
