TYPES OF INTCONTINENCE IN MEN

There are different types of incontinence. Stress incontinence is when activities such as sneezing, coughing, laughing, lifting and exercise lead to leaking. Urgency incontinence is when a sudden urge to urinate occurs and you may be unable to get to the bathroom in time. There is also leakage without warning, where you may experience leakage without urgency, when standing up from a chair for example. Finally post-void dribbling, which is where urine continues to dribble or drip following a trip to the bathroom.

Appropriate individualised exercise prescription has been shown to significantly decrease the likelihood of urinary incontinence in men, especially when done pre- and post-surgery. As decline in pelvic floor and core function is a contributor, exercise that focus on strengthening and ensuring appropriate activation during day to day activities should be a focus.
