Types Of Incontinence
We are driven by a deep commitment to improving the lives of individuals with incontinence needs.
Types of Incontinence
Stress Incontinence
Stress incontinence occurs when there is increased pressure on the bladder, causing urine leakage during physical activities such as coughing, sneezing, laughing, or exercising. It is often caused by weakened pelvic floor muscles that support the bladder and urethra.
Urge Incontinence
Urge incontinence, also known as overactive bladder, is characterized by a sudden and intense urge to urinate, followed by an involuntary loss of urine. It is caused by an overactive detrusor muscle, which leads to frequent and urgent bathroom trips.
Risk Factors
Family history
there might be a genetic link to urinary incontinence, so you may be more at risk if other people in your family have experienced similar problems.
Increasing age
urinary incontinence becomes increasingly common as you reach middle age and is particularly common for people over 80.
Having lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS)
a range of symptoms that affect the bladder and urethra.
Urinary Tract infection
Infection that irritates your bladder, causing urges to urinate and sometimes incontinence. Other symptoms of urinary tract infection include burning sensations when your urinate and foul-smelling urine.
Constipation
The rectum is located near the bladder and shares many of the same nerves. Hard compacted stool in your rectum causes these nerves to be overactive which would increase urinary frequency.
