Urinary Incontinence in Males - Result in

De Wikis en Educación

Urinary incontinence happens when the muscle (sphincter) that holds your bladder's outlet closed is not strong adequate to hold back the urine. This could occur if the sphincter is also weak, if the bladder muscles contract also strongly, or if the bladder is overfull.

Strain incontinence occurs when the muscle (sphincter) surrounding the urethra opens at an inappropriate time. This can happen when you laugh, sneeze, cough, lift a thing, or change posture. Tension incontinence can be brought on by surgery to treat an enlarged prostate or prostate cancer, urinary incontinent radiation therapy to treat prostate cancer, or removal of the prostate. For more information, see the topics Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) or Prostate Cancer.

Urge incontinence is caused by bladder contractions that are too powerful to be stopped by the sphincter. Often the urge is a response to a thing that stress urinary incontinence makes you anticipate urination, such as waiting to use a toilet, unlocking the door when returning house, or even turning on a faucet. The bladder contractions can be brought on by a lot of conditions, including:

Urinary tract infection.

Bowel problems, such as constipation.

Prostatitis, a painful infection of the prostate gland.

Particular neurological conditions that influence nerve signals from the brain, such as Parkinson's illness or stroke.

Kidney or bladder stones.

Blockage due to prostate cancer or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

Overactive bladder is a type of urge incontinence. But not every person with overactive bladder leaks urine. For far more information, see the subject Overactive Bladder.

Overflow incontinence typically is triggered by obstruction of the stress incontinance urethra from BPH or prostate cancer or when the bladder muscles contract weakly or do not contract when they must. Other causes include:

Narrowing of the urethra (stricture).

Medicines, such as antihistamines, and decongestants.

Nerve circumstances, such as diabetes or many sclerosis.

Functional incontinence is a uncommon form of incontinence caused by physical or mental limitations that restrict a man's capability to reach the toilet in time.
