An air bladder is an internal organ used by fish to control their buoyancy, which allows them to maintain or change depth depending on their density.

How does air in bladder infection form?

My mother was recently told that she has air in her bladder. Her doctor said that there are two ways that air can get into the bladder. One is when a catheter is inserted air can go in with it. The other is a fistula between the colon and bladder that allows air to enter from the colon into the bladder. I have since seen an article that says that bladder infections can sometimes cause gas (air) to build up in the bladder. Hope this helps!

What are some uses of a bladder in a fish?

To urinate, if you mean the urinary bladder. If you mean the swim bladder, it is to be able to change its depth in the water. It has a way to vent air from the gills to the swim bladder, and from the swim bladder to the digestive tract. So the fish would inflate the bladder to be able to rise and deflate the bladder to go lower.
