Incontinence

Urinary incontinence is the uncontrollable loss of urine, it is a relatively common problem in the group of adults of the elderly, but this problem can affect people from another age group.

There are four basic types of incontinence:

  • Total incontinence: This condition is characterized by a more or less constant loss of small amounts of urine, without paying attention to the position of the body.
      • The possible causes include:
    • Damage to the urinary sphincter (due to an anatomical abnormality or injury)
    • Nerve damage
    • Infiltrative tumors
    • Presence of abnormal fistulas or passages through which the urine of the body comes out
    • Bypass of the urethra
  • Stress incontinence: in this condition, sneezing, raising some weight or anything else that increases its pressure within the abdomen forcing the urine to drip.
    This is more common in women than in men, especially women who have had children, narrowness of the pelvis's floor muscles or those who have had surgery in the pelvic region.
  • Emergency incontinence: urinary urgency surrounds the inflammation of the bladder or neurological problem that may suddenly cause uncontrollable desires to evacuate;leaving without giving time to do in the toilet.
  • Swelling Incontinence: In people with urine by overflow, the bladder is relaxed, then no additional urine can enter without dripping something out.Chronic urine retention can lead to this problem.
    It is more common in the elderly and in men with the enlargement of the prostate, which restricts the output of urine flow.

Urinary incontinence is not necessarily a permanent problem. Pregnancy, delirium, infection, vaginal irritation, depression and psychosis can cause some form of incontinence;Certain medicines can also be responsible for this.

The most common cause of incontinence in very old people is a condition called detrusor muscle activity.
