Pelvic floor rehab for urinary incontinence
New Delhi, 15 September. When the pelvic floor muscles are contracted, the internal organs are lifted and the sphincters tighten the openings of the vagina, anus and urethra. Relaxing the pelvic floor allows passage of urine and faeces.
Pelvic floor muscles are also important for sexual function in both men and women.
According to Padma Shri Awardee, Vice President CMAAO & President HCFI Dr KK Aggarwal
“The pelvic floor muscles aid control of your bladder and bowels. Strengthening these muscles can be helpful to people with stress incontinence as well as those with urge incontinence. This is done with Kegel exercises, which involve squeezing and releasing the muscles you use to hold in urine.
A physical therapist can help you learn how to do the exercises properly. The majority of people with urge incontinence will improve with rehab. It may not make it 100% better, but even 75% may be acceptable to many people.”
