FAQ's
What causes urinary incontinence?
When you urinate, the muscles in your bladder contract and move your urine into the urethra, while the muscles around the urethra relax in order to allow urine to exit the body. Urinary incontinence typically occurs when these muscles relax without warning.
What can I do to help with urge incontinence?
Avoiding foods and beverages like the ones listed here can lessen the severity of urge incontinence.
What are the types of urinary incontinence?
The four basic types of incontinence are stress incontinence, urge incontinence, mixed incontinence, and overflow incontinence.
How can I manage incontinence at work?
During peak work hours, try to start timing your voids, limit water intake, and avoid coffee, which is a diuretic and can irritate the bladder.
What is a commode chair used for?
A commode chair is typically used for people who are unable to walk to the bathroom.
Are there special cleansers for people with incontinence?
If you have a bladder accident, not only is it imperative that you change your pad and underwear as soon as possible, but you should also wash and dry the area to remove bacteria and prevent the skin from becoming further irritated. Special cleansers that have been designed for incontinence usually contain moisturizer and have been pH-balanced to reduce skin irritation.
