| Can it be cured? |
| |
In many cases bladder weakness can be cured. It depends on what has caused your bladder weakness in the first place. A training program may be all you need in order to regain your confidence.
Pelvic floor exercises
Losing urine when laughing, coughing or lifting is often caused by weakened pelvic floor muscles. Simple exercises for building up the muscles of the pelvic floor are recommended. You will find some simple exercises in the keeping healthy section. The best results will be achieved with guidance from a physiotherapist.
Medicines
There are different kinds of medication and new and improved medicines are launched regularly.
Do not keep it to yourself
A good idea is to discuss your bladder weakness with your nearest and dearest. Your openness in discussing your situation with them will be rewarded by a greater, mutual understanding and, no doubt, an even greater sense of relief on your part.
It is also important to consult your healthcare professional who will be able to recommend the best course of action for you - maybe a change of medicine, changes in your dietary habits or an exercise program. |
