Incontinence as a social taboo

Controlling urine and stool excretion is a learned skill that becomes an unspoken requirement as we grow older.Taboos are known in many cultures, often relating to areas of human biological existence, such as death, illness, disability, menstruation or excretions.Accordingly, the symptom of incontinence is avoided in social settings.Despite educational efforts, incontinence remains a taboo topic.Those affected often develop shame about their own inability instead of accepting it as an illness.

Effects of incontinence

Bladder weakness is not a life-threatening disease, but it can significantly affect the quality of life of those affected.Bladder weakness is often kept secret out of shame.The inability to control bladder emptying is perceived by many sufferers as degrading and hurts their self-esteem.This can lead to social withdrawal, isolation and relationship problems.A high percentage of those affected require care as a result of urinary incontinence.Home care by relatives often reaches its limits, and incontinence is the reason for every second move to a nursing home.

Forms of incontinence

There are different forms of incontinence:

Stress/stress incontinence: Involuntary loss of urine that occurs synchronously with physical exertion, such as coughing or sneezing.There is a disruption in the storage function of the urinary bladder.

Urge incontinence: Involuntary loss of urine that is accompanied by or immediately precedes a sudden, difficult-to-suppress urge to urinate.Here, too, there is a disruption in the storage function of the urinary bladder.

Mixed incontinence: Involuntary loss of urine that occurs in connection with both the urge to urinate and physical exertion.There is a disruption in the storage function of the urinary bladder.

Extraurethral incontinence: Observable constant loss of urine through channels other than the urethra, as in a bladder-vaginal fistula.There is a disruption in the storage and emptying function of the urinary bladder.

Incontinence in chronic urinary retention (overflow incontinence): Incomplete emptying of the bladder with and without voluntary loss of urine.There is a malfunction in the emptying function.

Uncategorizable incontinence: Observable involuntary loss of urine that cannot be clearly assigned based on symptoms or findings.

Pelvic floor training for incontinence

Strengthening the muscles of the pelvic floor through regular training is a promising treatment for mild to moderate stress incontinence.Like arm, leg or abdominal muscles, the muscles of the pelvic floor can also be strengthened through special exercises.They consist of so-called skeletal muscles that can be trained.

Data and facts about the occurrence

Incontinence can affect both urinary and stool excretion, with urinary incontinence being the more common form.Women are generally more often affected by bladder weakness than men.Forms that women particularly suffer from are stress/stress incontinence or urge incontinence.Men of all ages are primarily affected by urge incontinence.In older men, the form of overflow incontinence caused by a benign enlargement of the prostate is not an isolated case.Urinary incontinence is one of the most common diseases of old age in seniors over 65 years of age.In this age group, women and men are equally affected.The strong age dependency explains the above-average numbers in retirement and nursing homes.It is estimated that 80% of nursing home residents have more or less severe incontinence.If those affected also suffer from dementia, this rate rises to over 90%.Due to increasing life expectancy, the number of illnesses is expected to continue to rise.

Bladder weakness in women

Despite bladder weakness, women can lead a balanced life.

Bladder weakness in men

Even with incontinence, men can actively enjoy life.

Care of those affected
