What should I do about urinary incontinence due to brain atrophy?
Urinary incontinence due to brain atrophy is mainly because the brain centers controlling urination and defecation have atrophied. This can be caused by vascular reasons leading to brain atrophy, such as cerebral infarction or hemorrhage affecting the adjacent centrolobular region, leading to urinary incontinence. Therefore, treatment should primarily target the underlying disease. Rehabilitation treatments are recommended, particularly traditional Chinese medicine methods like acupuncture and moxibustion. Modern rehabilitation, establishing regular urinary habits, and pelvic floor rehabilitation are also beneficial for treating urinary incontinence. Additionally, both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine can be used for treatment.
