Types of Incontinence
Urinary incontinence is the involuntary passing of urine, a condition that affects millions of people around the world.1 Whilst it is a common condition, it can be inconvenient or even distressing if not properly managed and we at iD want to help caregivers to look after their patients and/or loved ones and let them live life in full view.
There are several different types of incontinence and in this article, we will address the three main types of incontinence and how you can best manage them.
