In cases of postpartum urinary incontinence, it is acceptable for new mothers to consume lamb in moderation. Lamb is highly nutritious, rich in protein, as well as vitamins and minerals. It can enhance the physical immunity of postpartum women and is also helpful in improving postpartum urinary incontinence. When urinary incontinence occurs, it is necessary to first visit a hospital for an examination to assess the severity of the condition and to choose an appropriate treatment method. Generally, mild urinary incontinence can be improved over time with proper care and can return to normal. However, severe urinary incontinence may require surgical treatment. It is important to rest, strengthen nutrition, and ensure adequate sleep.

Does postpartum urinary incontinence require surgery?

In cases of postpartum urinary incontinence, treatment should be selectively based on the individual condition of the mother. For those with mild postpartum urinary incontinence symptoms, normal recovery can be achieved through effective physical exercise and a period of rest and recuperation. However, in severe cases of urinary incontinence, surgery is also a treatment option. Therefore, the treatment for postpartum urinary incontinence should be determined based on the specific cause and severity of the condition. It is not limited to surgical treatment alone, so it is necessary to conduct an examination first and then choose the method of treatment.

Why do lactating women experience urinary incontinence?

Under normal circumstances, postpartum women might experience mild urinary incontinence due to incomplete recovery of pelvic floor muscle function, which is within the normal physiological range. If urinary incontinence persists throughout the entire breastfeeding period, it is considered that there may be an abnormal illness. Due to the stimulating effect on the pelvic muscles during childbirth, it is easy for the pelvic floor muscles to become relaxed. If not properly repaired after childbirth, this can lead to urinary incontinence. Persistent urinary incontinence may affect normal life and work, requiring timely medical consultation and examination. If there are no other ways to improve, surgical repair treatment might be necessary.

Should I wear diapers for urinary incontinence?

Whether patients with urinary incontinence need to use diapers should be determined based on the severity of the incontinence. If it is only mild incontinence that does not affect normal work and life, it is not necessary to wear diapers. Regular urination schedules, along with exercises like pelvic lift and pelvic floor muscle training, can alleviate the condition. However, if the incontinence is more pronounced, it is best to initially use diapers to prevent excessive urine leakage. If necessary, a urinary catheter can be used temporarily to drain the urine and prevent leakage. At the same time, it is important to actively undergo relevant examinations to determine the cause of the incontinence and carry out targeted treatment.

Can spinal inflammation urinary incontinence be cured?

Patients with myelitis often experience urinary incontinence because the condition affects the function of the autonomic nerves, which primarily govern the control of urination and defecation. Symptoms may include urinary incontinence, urinary frequency, or urinary retention. To treat urinary incontinence, it is first necessary to treat acute myelitis. Treatment must be timely, involving the administration of corticosteroids to suppress the inflammatory response and promote recovery from myelitis. Additionally, B vitamins should be administered to nourish the nerves and accelerate nerve repair. Moreover, adjunctive rehabilitation therapy is also crucial. For urinary incontinence, rehabilitation physicians may offer interventions such as acupuncture and training for the bladder sphincter muscle function. Most patients have a relatively good prognosis after treatment and can be cured.

Is minimally invasive sling surgery for urinary incontinence permanent?

Minimally invasive sling surgery is generally suitable for patients with stress urinary incontinence. This surgery is usually not permanent, and its specific name is tension-free urethral suspension. It is used to increase the closure pressure of the urethra. Therefore, when the intra-abdominal pressure increases, the increased urethral closure pressure can prevent urine leakage. This surgery is one of the more common surgeries in clinical practice, but over time, various complications related to the surgery tend to increase. Common surgical complications include difficulty urinating, bladder perforation, and corrosion of the vaginal or urethral sling. Over time, the probability of corrosion gradually increases.
