Title: Overactive & Incontinence Bladder Health Care


1
Overactive Incontinence Bladder Health Care
  • The treatment you and your doctor choose depends
    on your type of urinary incontinence and how bad
    your symptoms are.
  • If there is no infection or cancer or other cause
    that could only be cured by surgery, treatment is
    done in stages

Treatment Overview
  • Behavioral strategies may be enough to control
    your symptoms. These include simple changes to
    your diet, lifestyle, and urinary habits. See
    Home Treatment for more information.
  • Medicines that treat infection or bladder muscle
    spasm may help.
  • Self-catheterization may help you manage overflow
    incontinence from a weak bladder or blockage. It
    may also be used if surgery is not the best
    option for you. When you need to drain your
    bladder, you insert a thin, hollow tube through
    your urethra into the bladder. To learn more, see
    Other Treatment.

Surgery is usually considered when it is the only
treatment that can cure the incontinence, such as
when the condition is caused by a bladder
blockage.
Treatment Overview
  • Many men who have urge incontinence or overflow
    incontinence also have an enlarged prostate gland
    (benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH). For more
    information, see the topic Benign Prostatic
    Hyperplasia (BPH).
