Woman's hospital visit for suspected UTI reveals something HORRIFYING inside her
A glass tumbler was lodged in a woman's bladder for four years after physicians assumed she had a UTI. The 45-year-old had gone to the hospital with symptoms of a lower UTI (urinary tract infection), including leakage. However, physicians were taken aback when diagnostic scans revealed a glass in her bladder.
It was enclosed by an 8cm (3-inch) bladder stone, which is usually so tiny that it is difficult to spot with the naked eye. The Tunisian woman said that she had used the drinking glass as a sex toy in the past. She had apparently placed it into the urethra, from where females urinate rather than the vagina.

The lady may have been performing "urethral sounding," which is not mentioned in the medical report. Wed MD writes that it is dangerous to put any item into the urethra in order to "increase sexual pleasure and arousal." Doctors have received accounts of people purposefully placing objects there, either for mental health reasons or for enjoyment – but this is not advised.
The reports stated, “The motivations most frequently associated with the presence of foreign bodies within the bladder are of a sexual or erotic nature. Various objects have been inserted into the bladder and many patients fail to remove them themselves and are very embarrassed to seek medical advice, which is the origin of a clinical picture which is most often atypical which occurs in a patient particular terrain," it added.
The patient was admitted to Academic Hospital Habib Bourguiba's emergency room with symptoms of a urinary tract infection. The patient stated that she had experienced cystitis (bladder irritation) on various occasions, but that it had never been checked.
According to the report, the woman had no blood in her pee and was not suffering from urinary incontinence. However, her red blood cell range was larger than normal indicating that her body was fighting an infection.
Bladder stones are hard masses of minerals that form when urine is not adequately discharged from the bladder. They are generally extremely tiny. They can, however, develop around foreign items in the bladder, such as a glass tumbler.
Doctors did surgery to remove the bladder stone in this case. They then shattered it open, revealing the still-intact glass that had been trapped inside the patient for years. The woman had healed and was able to return home two days later to her surgery.
The report further concluded, “Complicated forms are those diagnosed late and often associated with recurrent urinary tract infections, lithiasis and/or fistulas. The best treatment remains preventive by balancing the underlying etiopathogenic disorder and by a good sex education.”
