When medications, exercises, and lifestyle changes aren’t enough to control bladder problems, there is still hope. One of the most advanced options available today is Sacral Nerve Stimulation (SNS) — also called sacral neuromodulation. This treatment helps patients restore bladder (and sometimes bowel) control, offering freedom from the daily struggles of leakage or urgency. How Does Sacral Nerve Stimulation Work? Your bladder and bowels are controlled by special nerves in the lower back, called the sacral nerves, located near the tailbone. If these nerves don’t send the right signals, it can lead to problems like leakage, urgency, or trouble emptying the bladder. SNS uses a small device, like a pacemaker, which sends gentle electrical pulses to these nerves. This restores normal communication between the brain and bladder, improving control and reducing symptoms. SNS can help with: 👉 Urge incontinence (leaking with a strong urge) 👉 Frequent urination 👉 Urinary retention (trouble e...

Sometimes after back surgery, people may notice changes in their ability to control urine. This can happen if the nerves in the lower back that help the bladder work are disturbed. Doctors call this Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS), which means pain or nerve symptoms continue even after surgery. Why does this happen? Nerve involvement: The nerves in your lower back also control the bladder. If they are injured, compressed, or irritated during or after surgery, bladder control can be affected. Communication issues: The brain may not send or receive the right signals to your bladder after surgery. Cauda Equina Syndrome: In rare but serious cases, nerves at the bottom of the spine get badly squeezed, causing sudden bladder or bowel problems. This is a medical emergency. How common is it? Studies show that bladder problems like urgency, leakage, or difficulty passing urine can affect about 4 out of 10 people after certain spine surgeries. The risk is higher when surgery is done in th...

Welcome back to our incontinence awareness series!

Medical Reasons for Incontinence Urinary incontinence doesn’t have a single cause. It can result from muscle weakening, nerve damage (like after a stroke or with conditions such as diabetes), bladder infections, menopause, prostate problems, some medications, and more. These can all disrupt how the body stores and releases urine — ...

Across the globe, more and more people are turning to adult diapers.  The main reason?  Urine or stool leakage, medically known as incontinence. This condition happens when the muscles and nerves that control bladder or bowel movements don’t work quite as well as they used to. What Causes Incontinence? ➡️ Weakening muscles that hold in urine or stool ➡️ Damage to the nerves that communicate with the brain ➡️ Changes in the body’s anatomy affecting normal control Incontinence usually results from factors such as ageing, injuries, nerve problems, infections, or certain medical conditions. Because the causes can vary widely, it’s important to see a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and care. Why Is This a Growing Issue? Japan leads the world in adult diaper use because it has one of the oldest populations on Earth. But this is not just Japan’s story. Many countries across North America, Europe, and Asia are seeing similar trends as their populations age and people live lo...

PCOS doesn’t just affect your periods—it's also about how your body handles sugar because of a problem called insulin resistance. With PCOS, your cells stop reacting well to insulin (the hormone that moves sugar into your cells for energy), so your pancreas works overtime to keep up. This extra insulin tells your ovaries to make more male hormones, making PCOS symptoms like irregular periods and unwanted hair worse. Even women who aren’t overweight can have insulin resistance with PCOS. What You Can Do: ✅️ Eat a balanced, low-sugar diet and exercise regularly. ✅️ Manage stress and weight (if needed) to help your body use insulin better. ✅️ Work with your doctor for the right tests and treatment, sometimes including medicines like metformin. Insulin resistance sits at the heart of PCOS—treating it helps improve your symptoms, fertility, and lifelong health. To explore how the pancreas fits into this hormonal puzzle and tips for supporting its health with PCOS, check out our previous...

Why Does PCOS Cause Insulin Resistance? A Simple Guide Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) affects millions of women worldwide. Beyond irregular periods and ovarian cysts, PCOS also impacts how your body uses insulin—the hormone that helps turn sugar from food into energy. Understanding insulin resistance in PCOS can help you manage symptoms better and improve your health. What is Insulin Resistance? Insulin is like a key that opens the door for sugar to enter your body’s cells (especially muscle and fat cells). In insulin resistance, the “locks” on these cells don’t open properly when insulin tries to do its job. As a result, sugar stays in the bloodstream instead of being absorbed for energy. To compensate, your pancreas produces more insulin, causing high insulin levels in the blood. How Does PCOS Cause Insulin Resistance? In PCOS, the insulin “lock” (called the insulin receptor) is chemically altered, mainly through a process called serine phosphorylation. This makes it harder for ins...

Every year, thousands of people across the globe begin their rehabilitation journey affected with paralysis. It starts with hope—but sadly, many do not complete the full course of treatment. This often leads to long-term or even permanent disability. So why does this happen? Recovering from paralysis is a long road, and it requires more than just medical therapy. It takes emotional support, physical assistance, and financial stability. Unfortunately, in many low- and middle-income countries, these supports can be hard to find—or they don’t last. Families often start out by standing strong with their loved one—traveling to therapy sessions, offering encouragement, and staying involved. But over time, caring for someone in rehab can become overwhelming. When family support fades, the patient’s motivation fades too. Without consistent help and hope, people lose confidence and stop therapy altogether. Money is another major challenge. Rehabilitation often costs more than surgery, and mos...
