How to Treat Urinary Incontinence in Knoxville, TN!

Jumping on the trampoline and leaking urine? Oops, sneezing, coughing or laughing and you find yourself wet or running to the bathroom. Ladies, you are not alone!
Urinary Incontinence, or the involuntary loss of urine, is a common disorder that affects women and can decrease the quality of life. Urinary Incontinence, untreated, can also have health consequences

Different Types of Urinary Incontinence:

  • Stress Urinary Incontinence
  • Urge Urinary Incontinence
  • Mixed Urinary Incontinence
  • Overflow Urinary Incontinence
  • Functional Urinary Incontinence

There can be a variety of different reasons you are experiencing this:

  • Aging
  • Changes in the urinary system with pregnancy or childbirth
  • Medications
  • Menopause
  • Perimenopause
  • Infections
  • Organ prolapse
  • Neurological Issues

While most cases are not a serious or life changing diagnosis, all women should be aware that traditional treatments are limited and there are many regenerative options available.

The American Project—Journal of urology. 5

A study released in 2021 surveyed women between 2005-2016 and found that 53% of women had urinary incontinence. Around 30% responded that their case was moderate to severe and 24% reported it impacted daily life. That is huge and yet ineffective medical or invasive surgery is still the only offered solution—if you are screened appropriately.

Traditional Treatments (that may involve lots of downtime and pain):

  • Medications
  • Injection therapy
    • Botulinum toxin injections–botox injections in bladder
    • Sacral Injections
  • Surgery
    • Bladder Slings
    • Suspensions
    • Urethral artificial sphincters
  • Pelvic Floor exercises–Kegels
