Natural Cures for Incontinence
The difficulties caused by problems with bladder or bowel cause untold upset and misery both for sufferers and their immediate families and friends. As there are a number of remediable or serious causes you should visit your doctor to get a firm diagnosis or remediable cause treated.
When properly diagnosed, there are a number of drug treatments to either contract weak bladders or relax tense ones. They all have side effects. In intractable problems, sometimes indwelling catheters are used to get round the problem. They are not a cure.
Incontinence Treatments
Modern Western Medicine
Drug therapy is with drugs to relax the tense bladder and to tighten the relaxed one. They are not specific for the bladder and can affect vision and blood pressure.
