Bladder and Bowel Health
Bladder and bowel dysfunction are common pelvic concerns that we see at Bloom Pelvic Health. Common bladder and bowel problems may include:
Bladder leakage with coughing, sneezing & exercising
Increased urinary frequency or urgency with the inability to get to the toilet in time
Constipation
Faecal incontinence or smearing
Flatulence (unable to hold onto wind)
Pain with emptying your bladder or bowel
Management of all bladder and bowel problems will include an in depth assessment where your treating physiotherapist will discuss with you your current symptoms, your health history and your goals of what you would like to achieve through physiotherapy. They will also conduct a thorough physical examination, which normally involves assessment of your pelvic floor muscles.
They sometimes might get you to fill out a bladder and/or bowel diary to get a better understanding of your current health and symptoms. Your Physiotherapist can also work closely with. your General Practitioner and other specialists (Urologists, Gastroenterologists, Gynaecologists) in providing care.
