URINARY INCONTINENCE is the involuntary leakage of urine. It can affect anyone and ranges from minor dribbles to more frequent leaks. Common types include:
Stress Incontinence: Leakage during activities like coughing, sneezing, or exercising.
Urge Incontinence: A sudden, intense urge to urinate followed by leakage.
Overflow Incontinence: Incomplete bladder emptying leading to constant dribbling.
Causes and Management
• Weak pelvic muscles, aging, childbirth, certain medications, and medical conditions (like diabetes or urinary tract infections) can contribute to incontinence. Management may include:
• Lifestyle Changes: Adjusting fluid intake, reducing caffeine and alcohol, and maintaining a healthy weight.
• Exercises: Pelvic floor (Kegel) exercises strengthen bladder-supporting muscles.
• Medical Treatments: Medications or other therapies may be needed based on the type and severity.
