Bowel and Bladder Dysfunction in Livonia, Ferndale, and Detroit
Incontinence
Incontinence refers to the loss of bladder control, ranging from minor urine leakage during coughing to more severe cases where the urge to urinate cannot be controlled in time. Fortunately, treatment for incontinence can help reduce the frequency and severity of symptoms. One effective approach involves strengthening the pelvic floor muscles. Weak pelvic floor muscles, tightness, and uncontrolled spasms can contribute to incontinence. In some cases, your physical therapist may use electrodes to assess pelvic floor activity, stimulate the muscles, and improve their function.
Prolapse
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) occurs when the pelvic organs descend through the perineum. Weak pelvic floor muscles and insufficient support structures contribute to this condition. Building strength takes time, so immediate results may not be achieved through physical therapy alone. However, physical therapy can be highly effective in reducing symptoms and preventing the condition from worsening. It may even be a preferable alternative to surgery. If you have concerns about prolapse risk, symptoms to watch for, or available treatment options, we encourage you to schedule an appointment at our clinic. We are here to provide information and support, addressing any questions specific to your situation.
