Urinary incontinence

Urinary Incontinence Specialist in Jalandhar – Dr. Rajesh Aggarwal | Sarvodya Hospital
Urinary Incontinence

Urinary incontinence — the involuntary loss of urine — is a common but often misunderstood condition that can significantly affect your quality of life. At Sarvodya Hospital, under Dr Rajesh Aggarwal, we specialize in diagnosing and treating all types of urinary incontinence in both men and women, using personalized, evidence-based solutions.

What Is Urinary Incontinence?

Urinary incontinence is the unintentional leakage of urine. It can range from occasional dribbling to a complete inability to control urination. While more common with age, it is not a normal part of aging and can affect people of all ages and genders.

 Types of Urinary Incontinence

Understanding the type of incontinence you have is essential for effective treatment. The most common types include:

  • Stress Incontinence
  • Leakage occurs during physical activity that increases pressure on the bladder, such as coughing, sneezing, laughing, or lifting.
  • Urge Incontinence (Overactive Bladder)
  • A sudden, intense urge to urinate followed by involuntary leakage. Often associated with frequent urination and nighttime urination.
  • Mixed Incontinence
  • A combination of stress and urge incontinence symptoms.
  • Overflow Incontinence
  • Occurs when the bladder doesn’t empty completely, leading to constant dribbling or frequent leakage.
  • Functional Incontinence
  • Urine leakage due to physical or cognitive impairments (e.g., arthritis, dementia) that prevent reaching the bathroom in time.
Common Causes of Urinary Incontinence

Urinary incontinence can be caused by a variety of factors, including:

  • Pelvic floor muscle weakness
  • Prostate problems (e.g., BPH, post-prostate surgery)
  • Neurological conditions (e.g., stroke, Parkinson’s, MS)
  • Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
  • Hormonal changes (e.g., menopause)
  • Childbirth and pregnancy
  • Obesity
  • Chronic constipation
  • Medications

 

Diagnosis: What to Expect

At Sarvodya Hospital, under Dr. Rajesh Aggarwal, we use a thorough and compassionate approach to uncover the cause of your symptoms. Diagnostic tests may include:

  • Detailed medical history and symptom questionnaire
  • Physical examination
  • Urinalysis and urine culture
  • Bladder diary
  • Urodynamic testing
  • Ultrasound or cystoscopy (if needed)

We tailor the diagnostic process to your individual needs to ensure an accurate diagnosis and effective treatment plan.
