Urinary Incontinence loss of bladder control

Condition:

Urinary Incontinence loss of bladder control

Definition:

Urinary incontinence — the loss of bladder control — is a common and often embarrassing problem.

The severity ranges from occasionally leaking urine when you cough or sneeze to having an urge to urinate that’s so sudden and strong you don’t get to a toilet in time.

Though it occurs more often as people get older, urinary incontinence isn’t an inevitable consequence of aging. If urinary incontinence affects your daily activities, don’t hesitate to see your doctor. For most people, simple lifestyle and dietary changes or medical care can treat symptoms of urinary incontinence.

Urinary incontinence affects both men and women, but it tends to be more common in women overall.

Symptom:

The symptoms of urinary incontinence depend on the type you have.

There are several types of urinary incontinence, but the most common are:

Stress incontinence – urine leaks when you exert pressure on your bladder by coughing, sneezing, laughing, exercising or lifting something heavy.
Urge incontinence – you have a sudden, intense urge to urinate followed by an involuntary loss of urine. You may need to urinate often, including throughout the night. Urge incontinence may be caused by a minor condition, such as infection, or a more severe condition such as a neurological disorder or diabetes.
Overflow incontinence – you experience frequent or constant dribbling of urine due to a bladder that doesn’t empty completely.
Functional incontinence – a physical or mental impairment keeps you from making it to the toilet in time. For example, if you have severe arthritis, you may not be able to unbutton your pants quickly enough.
Mixed incontinence – you experience more than one type of urinary incontinence — most often this refers to a combination of stress incontinence and urges incontinence.

Many people experience occasional, minor leaks of urine. Others may lose small to moderate amounts of urine more frequently.
