When The Floodgates Open: What You Should Know About Potentially Deadly "Overflow Incontinence"
Thanks for tuning in to the Armor Men’s Health Hour Podcast, where we bring you the latest and greatest in urology care and the best urology humor out there. Today, Dr. Mistry answers a listener question about BPH and prostate issues. In his email, this listener--who has a wonderful sense of humor about his condition--explains his symptoms as "low capacity and frequent urgency" which lead to "overflow" (urinary leakage). He describes his bladder as a "steel tennis ball" that is small and unable to hold much urine. "Would shriveling up my prostate return any capacity or elasticity to my bladder? Any other ideas?" In answering this excellent question, Dr. Mistry differentiates between obstructive urinary symptoms, such as slow flow and incomplete emptying, and a "low capacity" bladder, which can be treated by stretching the bladder with medication. A different and potentially life-threatening issue is the patient who has a normal-sized bladder, but who is only able to empty a few ounces of it at a time. This situation may lead to "overflow incontinence," a condition so dangerous that it can cause kidney failure. While "shriveling up the prostate" might help a patient with overflow incontinence, they must be evaluated immediately to prevent kidney damage or failure. Regardless of the cause, serious leakage is something that we approach aggressively in men and women and which can be treated with a number of interventions, all of which can not only alleviate symptoms but also drastically improve the quality of life those affected by leakage have. If you or a loved one are experiencing any of the above symptoms or are concerned about your amount of urinary leakage, please give us a call today!
