Urinary Incontinence Treatment in Bangalore

Urinary incontinence isn’t just a medical issue; it’s something that can quietly disrupt your day-to-day confidence and quality of life. If you've ever felt embarrassed by unexpected leakage, you’re not alone, and more importantly, you’re not without help.

At Shree Srinivasa Uro Care, Dr. K. S. Shiva Kumar, a senior urologist and the sole specialist at the clinic, offers personalized, compassionate solutions to help you regain control and confidence.

What is Urinary Incontinence?

Urinary incontinence is the involuntary leakage of urine. Simply put, it’s when you lose control over your bladder, which may result in anything from a few drops of leakage to complete loss of bladder control. It can affect both men and women, though it’s more commonly seen in women, especially as they age.

What Causes Urinary Incontinence?

There isn’t one single cause, but rather a combination of muscle, nerve, and structural issues that impact the bladder’s ability to hold or release urine.

• Pregnancy and childbirth – which can weaken pelvic muscles
• Menopause – due to hormonal changes affecting bladder control
• Aging – reduced muscle tone as we grow older
• Prostate issues in men – such as after prostate surgery
• Obesity – extra weight can put pressure on the bladder
• Neurological conditions – like stroke, multiple sclerosis, or spinal injuries

Types of Urinary Incontinence

• Stress Incontinence: Leakage occurs with sneezing, coughing, or lifting
• Urge Incontinence: A sudden, intense urge to urinate followed by leakage
• Overflow Incontinence: The Bladder doesn’t empty completely, causing dribbling
• Mixed Incontinence: A combination of stress and urge incontinence

Diagnosis at Shree Srinivasa Uro Care

Dr. K. S. Shiva Kumar starts with a detailed consultation and medical history, followed by physical examination and tests such as:

• Urine analysis to rule out infection
• Bladder diary to track symptoms
• Urodynamic tests to assess bladder pressure and urine flow
• Ultrasound or cystoscopy to check for anatomical concerns

There are no junior doctors or rotating specialists; here, you receive one-on-one care directly from Dr. Shiva Kumar from start to finish.

Treatment Options for Urinary Incontinence

1. Lifestyle Modifications

• Reducing caffeine and alcohol intake
• Managing fluid intake
• Weight loss for those who are overweight
• Bladder training exercises

2. Pelvic Floor Exercises (Kegels)

These exercises strengthen the muscles that support the bladder and can be highly effective, especially for mild cases.

3. Medications

Depending on the type of incontinence, Dr. Shiva Kumar may prescribe medications to relax the bladder or improve muscle tone.

4. Minimally Invasive Surgery

In more serious cases, surgical intervention may be necessary. Dr. Shiva Kumar offers:

• Mid-urethral sling procedures for women
• Bulking agent injections to support bladder control
• Bladder neck suspension for structural support
• Artificial urinary sphincter placement in men
• Minimally invasive robotic-assisted surgery, when required, for better precision and faster recovery

At our clinic, all surgical decisions are taken by Dr. K. S. Shiva Kumar himself, ensuring expert, customized care.
