Hi, this is Dr. Rob with Dr. Rob’s Medical Minutes.
November is Bladder Health Awareness Month.

Why it’s Important
Bladder issues like incontinence and urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common, especially with age, affecting quality of life and confidence. Addressing these issues early can prevent complications and improve comfort.

Symptoms and Findings
Bladder issues can present as frequent urination, urgency, pain, or incontinence. While often dismissed as part of aging, these symptoms are manageable with proper care and should not be ignored.

What to Do and Ask Your Doctor
Discuss any bladder issues with your doctor, including concerns about frequency, pain, or incontinence. Simple lifestyle adjustments, medications, or pelvic exercises can significantly improve bladder health and daily comfort.

Learn it, Live it, Share it. Be a Force for Health!
