Incontinence

imageIncontinence can involve urine leakage, loss of bladder control, or loss of bowel control.  It is a problem for as many as 25 million Americans.  Some people may lose urine when they cough, sneeze, laugh, or exercise.  Others may feel an intense need to urinate or feel like they need to use the bathroom constantly.  Others may feel like they’re unable to empty their bladders completely.  And still others may experience incontinence because of physical or mental limitations as they age.  Luckily, many forms of incontinence can be eliminated with proper medical care.  To get answers to all your incontinence questions, visit our list of Recommended Sites.
