Your bladder has its own waterproof lining

HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART

If liquid waste could seep back into your tissues, you would be in constant peril. To prevent this, the bladder is lined with the urothelium, a hyper-specialized barrier of tightly linked tissue that acts like a biological tarp. This aggressive waterproofing ensures that the highly concentrated toxins sitting in your bladder do not simply dissolve right back into the surrounding meat.
