Stress Incontinence

Stress incontinence is the involuntary release of urine from the bladder, often during physical activity or even due to high-pressure situations. Individuals may leak urine during running, jumping, heavy lifting, or when sneezing and coughing. The leakage may not occur every time they engage in these movements, and may only happen when the bladder is full. Stress incontinence can result from the weakening of the pelvic floor muscles or the urinary sphincter that allows the release of urine during voiding. A prolapsed bladder can cause increased pressure on these structures, leading to the involuntary release of urine. Incontinence can cause severe embarrassment and can often lead individuals to isolate themselves from normal activities.

Incomplete Voiding Of The Bladder

A prolapsed bladder may press down on the tissue and nerves, making it difficult to completely empty the bladder. Some individuals with incomplete voiding of the bladder may have to urinate more than once to empty their bladder, which may require repeated trips to the bathroom. Individuals often report feeling as if they have not emptied completely, even after what they believe is full urination. This problem often leads to interruption of their everyday activities at work or school, which can lead to embarrassment. Individuals who have problems urinating should have a frank discussion with their doctor, who can point them to the appropriate specialist. It may be a prolapsed bladder.
