Take Care of Urinary Incontinence Naturally with This Guide

 Urinary incontinence can be an embarrassing problem, but it is far from being uncommon. 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. ​ Urinary Incontinence Types and Causes The problem is more often associated with women, especially during pregnancy or menopause. It arises when there is a lot of internal pressure in the bladder. These are the different types of urinary incontinence: 

Urgent Incontinence 

Usually accompanied by the urge to urinate, this type of urinary incontinence happens when the sensory impulses in the walls of the bladder don’t react in time. 

 

Overflowing Incontinence 

This occurs when the bladder is stretched from being full of urine, which can be caused by a number of factors, such as urethra blockage, prostate enlargement in men or neurological damage to spine caused by a spinal cord injury, surgery or multiple sclerosis.

 Psychogenic Incontinence 

 Feeling fear, anxiety, mania or being exposed to something phobic are all causes of this type of incontinence. 

 

Neurological Incontinence 

Changes to the nervous system caused by a stroke, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injuries or other ailments result in changes in urinary function, and thus incontinence.

Urinary Incontinence Tips and Techniques 

 

In addition to the recipes outlined above, there are various things you can do to ease your urinary incontinence: 

 

Take Warm Sitz Baths  

While taking a sitz bath, try sitting down, contracting your pelvic muscles and holding for five seconds. Relax for 10 seconds, and then repeat. Do this exercise 10 times in succession each day.

Do Kegel Exercises 

When you are urinating, try contracting your pubococcygeus muscle by stemming the flow of urine. Repeat this process several times until your bladder is empty. Limit yourself to doing this exercise a maximum of three times per month. 

 

Do Hypopressure Exercises 

Stand with your leg a hip’s width apart, bringing your pelvis forward. Then, bend your knees slightly and raise your palms. Contract your abdomen three times using short breaths. Exhale each breath slowly. Repeat this process twice. 

 

Figure Out What’s Causing Your Incontinence 

If you’re stressed out, anxious, or happen to have a urinary tract infection, you need to remedy those things first in order for your incontinence to be treated in turn. 

 

Avoid These Foods  

Tomato sauce, chocolate, corn syrup, sugars, honey, chili pepper, curry, and other very sweet or spicy foods should be avoided, as they can irritate your bladder. Also avoid tea, coffee, and soft drinks.

Don’t Reduce Your Fluid Intake  

Although it might seem to make sense to reduce the amount of water you’re drinking, it isn’t such a good idea, because doing so could lead to dehydration and kidney problems. 

 

Lose Weight 

Obesity is associated with many different health problems, and incontinence is one of them. Its relation to incontinence is that it does not allow a person’s muscles, including the pelvis, to contract properly. 

 

Prevention 

Take preventative measures, such as going to the bathroom before sleeping at night. If you’re also sneezing, coughing or have to lift something heavy, try tightening your pubococcygeus muscle to prevent urine leaking out. 

 

Furthermore, make sure you use the bathroom before you leave home, and wear underwear that’s easy to take off. Keep a spare pair with you. 

 

Last but not least, if you need to go, go – don’t hold your bladder, as this may lead to an infection or weakened sphincter muscle.
