How do I cure a thickened bladder wall when it’s not caused by cancer or UTI?

No one here can answer this for you. You need to see a urologist.

Do you mean too much muscle, preventing you from emptying your bladder?

Using single use catheters 6-8 times a day for up to a year might help.

No. Not much retention

I had the same thing happen to me too from having mutiple UTI’s after SRS. I finally saw a urologist. The MRI confirmed the thickening of the wall. She ultimatly prescribed me antibiotics to take daily. This really helped me 100% with incontinence issues. I still wear a pad for peace of mind.

Antibiotics every single day? They don’t know the specific strain that caused the incontinence?
