It is possible for a bladder to rupture, although rare. If the bladder can't empty, it becomes painful enough that people usually seek medical help. A catheter is put into the bladder to drain the urine and relieve the pressure. The kidneys will also slow or stop urine production when the pressure backs up as a compensatory mechanism to avoid rupture of the bladder. A very full bladder can also be ruptured by trauma, such as a car accident, especially if pelvic bones are broken.
