Urinary
incontinence is loss of bladder control. Symptoms can range from mild leaking to uncontrollable wetting. It can happen to
anyone, but it becomes more common with age. Most bladder control problems happen when muscles are too weak or too active.
If the muscles that keep your bladder closed are weak, you may have accidents when you sneeze, laugh or lift a heavy object.
This is stress incontinence. If bladder muscles become too active, you may feel a strong urge to go to the bathroom when you
have little urine in your bladder. This is urge incontinence or overactive bladder. There are other causes of incontinence,
such as prostate problems and nerve damage.
