Treatment of urinary incontinence in Cherkasy

Urinary incontinence is considered to be a disease characteristic of childhood. But according to WHO statistics, up to 40% of adults are faced with incontinence. Pathology is caused not only by dysfunction of the bladder, structural abnormalities of the urethra or weakening of the general muscle tone of the pelvis, but is also provoked by neurological disorders. In this case, urinary incontinence in women and men is diagnosed and treated by a neurologist.

Incontinence affects adversely the physiological and psycho-emotional state of patients. Pathology causes severe stress, interferes with normal social activity, and prevents intimacy and physical activity. Urinary incontinence in men and women results quickly in personality changes: isolation, increased irritability, self-doubt.

If you have enuresis, don’t use folk remedies and don’t postpone a visit to a neurologist. Incontinence is sometimes a symptom of serious nervous disorders and structural changes in the nervous tissue.

Causes and symptoms

Neurological incontinence is usually associated with the appearance of a strong urge that cannot be controlled or delayed even for a short time. As a result, the bladder immediately empties, after that the urge subsides.

Other signs of pathology:

• involuntary discharge of fluid without the appearance of urges: the patient does not feel the desire to visit the restroom;
• Uncontrolled urine output: urine volume is not controlled in any way by the patient's willpower. It can occur suddenly without any external provoking factors (stress, physical activity).

But the main symptom remains uncontrolled urine production occurring in any environment.

The causes of bladder disorder may be the following:

• increased psycho-emotional stress;
• degenerative disorders of the nervous system: for example, Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis;
• brain tumors;
• alcoholism;
• genetic abnormalities;
• impaired metabolism.

For an accurate diagnosis, consult a qualified neurologist.

Treatment procedure

The main task of a neurologist is to establish the cause of urinary incontinence. It can be caused not only by a violation of nervous regulation, but also by the presence of a genitourinary infection or inflammation of the bladder. Diagnostics includes initial patient intake and additional examination.

The patient is referred for blood and urine tests, instrumental, ultrasound examinations are performed. Based on the data obtained, a treatment plan is built. If urinary incontinence in men or women is caused by serious degenerative pathologies, then therapy is aimed at maintaining the functions of the nervous system. The neuropathologist prescribes sedatives (under stressful loads), antidepressants. The complex of medicines is selected individually.

Treatment is carried out until complete recovery. During therapy, the patient visits a neurologist regularly and undergoes examinations to monitor the condition and study the response to the prescribed drugs.
