Talk to Your Healthcare Professional About Your Incontinence Symptoms
The importance of reporting incontinence to a knowledgeable and interested healthcare professional cannot be overstated. A correct diagnosis for incontinence is extremely important for finding proper treatment and care. Incontinence can sometimes be an indicator of a more serious medical condition. Incontinence should not be ignored and it should not be viewed as a normal part of childbirth or aging. Your healthcare professional will also help you understand which products will be the best for managing your type of incontinence.
