Bladder problems are a common challenge for many people living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Symptoms like urgency, frequency, or difficulty emptying the bladder can be frustrating and impact your daily life. Understanding these symptoms and knowing how to manage them can help you regain control and improve your comfort.
One helpful tip is to keep a bladder diary—track when and how often you go to the bathroom, and note any accidents. This can help you identify patterns and triggers. Additionally, practicing pelvic floor exercises may strengthen muscles that support bladder control. Staying hydrated is important, but try to limit caffeine and alcohol, as they can irritate the bladder.
If bladder issues persist, don’t hesitate to speak with your healthcare provider. They can offer treatments or medications that may ease symptoms. Sometimes, simple lifestyle adjustments and professional guidance can make a big difference in managing bladder health with MS.
