I use a foley catheter for incontinence and hate the drain bag at night and prefer to let it drain in my diaper. Can I get UTI's without the drain bag?

Incontinence? But only sometimes?

OK, I've been having issues with incontinence. I'm only 37 years old. I will have problems for about 2 weeks then no problem for w2 weeks. Could it be hormonal? This has been going on for close to a year. I know I need to see my doctor, but I have been trying to do my kegel exercises which haven't really helped. Why would it come and go like this? Thanks!

How can I prevent a hemorrhoid?

Filed under Incontinence

I have a medical condition(I guess you would call it) called faecal incontinence in which I've had chronic nonstop, everyday constipation since the day I was born. Hemorrhoids are caused by constant "pushing" mostly during constipation. I have never had one before but I get more and more nervous everyday about it. What can I do, if anything, to prevent from getting a hemorrhoid.

How can I avoid long-term problems after Episiotomy specified below?

April 18, 2011 by admin  
Filed under Incontinence

In fact, research shows that midline episiotomies tend to increase the average depth of perineal injury and substantially increase the risk of damage to the anal sphincter and the rectum (which can cause a lot of discomfort and, at times, long-term problems, such as anal incontinence). Besides increasing the incidence of serious lacerations, episiotomy is associated with increased pain postpartum, increased sexual discomfort when intercourse is resumed, and increased blood loss at the time of delivery. How we can avoid these problems?
