Bed-wetting - Enuresis
Bed-wetting is largely a childhood problem, through disease and aging can cause loss of bladder control among
adults. According to many pediatricians, bedwetting children often have unusually small bladder capacities. This
doesn't mean their bladders are any smaller than those of non-bedwetters, only that they feel full with less urine.
In the vast majority of cases of chronic childhood bedwetting, the problem is not caused by any disease or physical
abnormality. In cases where bedwetting begins after a dry period of six to twelve months, the cause is often
emotional distress. In one to three percent of cases, there is a physical cause, usually bladder infection.
HealthPoint offers useful assistance and is particularly worth trying in children.
Urinary Incontinence
This is an involuntary release of urine. It is common in older people, particularly men with enlarged prostate glands
and women who have had many children. In some cases HealthPoint can alleviate this
problem.
Urinary Retention
This occurs most often in elderly men and is most commonly due to enlargement of the prostate gland
situated at the base of the bladder. If it is recurrent, it is important that the opinion of a urological surgeon is
sought. The approach with HealthPoint can be very useful if the retention is caught
early.
