Male Urinary Incontinence Treatment in India
• Stress incontinence means that you leak urine when you sneeze, cough, laugh, lift something, change position, or do something that puts stress or strain on your bladder.
Artificial Sphineter:
Urinary incontinence is the accidental laking of urine. It's not a disease. It's a symptom of a problem with a man's urinary tract . Urine is made by the kidneys and stored in a sac made of muscle, called the urinary bladder . A tube called the urethra leads from the bladder through the prostate and penis to the outside of the body. Around this tube is a ring of muscles called the urinary sphincter. As the bladder fills with urine, nerve signals tell the sphincter to stay squeezed shut while the bladder stays relaxed. The nerves and muscles work together to prevent urine from leaking out of the body.
Incontinence can happen for many reasons:
• If your bladder squeezes at the wrong time, or if it squeezes too hard, urine may leak out.
• If the muscles around the urethra are damaged or weak, urine can leak out even if you don't have a problem with your bladder squeezing at the wrong time.
• If your bladder doesn't empty when it should, you are left with too much urine in the bladder. If the bladder gets too full, urine will leak out when you don't want it to.
• If something is blocking your urethra, urine can build up in the bladder. This can cause leaking.
Urinary incontinence happens more often in older men than in young men. But it's not just a normal part of aging.
• Stress incontinence means that you leak urine when you sneeze, cough, laugh, lift something, change position, or do something that puts stress or strain on your bladder.
• Urge incontinence is an urge to urinate that's so strong that you can't make it to the toilet in time. It also happens when your bladder squeezes when it shouldn't. This can happen even when you have only a small amount of urine in your bladder. Overactive bladder is a kind of urge incontinence. But not everyone with an overactive bladder leaks urine.
• Overflow incontinence means that you have the urge to urinate, but you can release only a small amount. Since your bladder doesn't empty as it should, it then leaks urine later.
• Total incontinence means that you are always leaking urine. It happens when the sphincter muscle no longer works.
• Functional incontinence means that you can't make it to the bathroom in time to urinate. This is usually because something got in your way or you were not able to walk there on your own.
Artificial Sphineter:
Urinary leakage in the male candidates can be treated with the artificial sphineter. This device is an implanted device helps keeping the urethra be closed, until the candidate gets ready for urination. The artificial sphineter device is helpful for the urinary incontinence that is caused from nerve damage interfering the function of the sphincter muscle or weakened muscle function. If the inconsistency is because of the uncontrolled bladder contractions, it does not solve the problem.
Urinary Diversion
Urinary diversion surgery is considered if the function of the bladder is lost because of the damage of the nerve or the bladder has to be removed. The surgery provides a urinary diversion. During the surgery, a reservoir is created after removing a small intestine piece and the ureter is directed to this reservoir. A stoma is also created as an opening for the lower abdomen so that the urine can be drained towards the bag through a catheter.
Male Sling
Male sling surgery procedure provides the support by wrapping a strip over the urethra. The ends of the strip are then attached to pelvic bone ends. The sling continues to keep the pressure over the urethra until the urine is released consciously by the candidate.
