Detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia is an involuntary contraction of the external urethral sphincter during the detrusor contraction. It causes voiding dysfunction and can lead to urologic complications such as hydroureteronephrosis and renal failure among other problems. Patients with spinal cord injuries are particularly vulnerable. And also children going through potty training. You have to consciously make an attempt to relax the bladder when voiding. You void every 2 hours, try to relax as completely as possible, and try to empty the bladder completely.
