Urge incontinence is a condition where a person experiences a sudden and intense need to urinate, often leading to involuntary leakage of urine. This can happen even when the bladder is not full, making it difficult for individuals to reach the bathroom in time. It can be caused by various factors, including bladder infections, neurological disorders, or age-related changes.
People with urge incontinence may find it challenging to manage their daily activities due to the fear of unexpected leaks. Treatment options include lifestyle changes, pelvic floor exercises, and medications that help control the bladder's overactivity, improving overall quality of life.
