Morphology
The meaning 'a medical condition affecting the urinary bladder' is directly derivable from combining 'bladder' (an organ that stores liquid) with 'disorder' (a diagnosed physical or mental condition). This straightforward noun+noun composition follows common compounding patterns and is cross‑linguistically transparent, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily understand it.
Etymology
Bladder disorder comes from thinking of the bladder as a small bag that holds urine and disorder as a 'problem'. So bladder disorder means a 'problem' with that bag, a health condition affecting the bladder.
