Understanding Urinary Incontinence
.
Urinary incontinence is a condition that affects millions of people worldwide, yet it is often a topic that people hesitate to discuss. Whether it's the occasional leakage of urine or a frequent, urgent need to urinate, urinary incontinence can severely affect a person’s quality of life.
At Dr. Ajinkya Patil's clinic, we understand how debilitating this condition can be. With years of experience in treating urological conditions, Dr. Ajinkya Patil and his team provide personalized, compassionate care. Our clinic locations in Panvel, Vashi, and Kharghar are equipped with state-of-the-art technology to diagnose and treat urinary incontinence, ensuring the best outcomes for our patients.
There are several types of urinary incontinence, each with its own set of causes and symptoms. These include:
- Stress Incontinence: Leakage when coughing, sneezing, laughing, or engaging in physical activity.
- Urge Incontinence: A sudden and intense urge to urinate, followed by involuntary leakage.
- Overflow Incontinence: The bladder does not empty completely, leading to dribbling urine.
- Functional Incontinence: Physical or mental impairments prevent timely access to the bathroom.
