I have always experienced frequent urination since young. I am a male, 56 now. In the last few years, I suddenly developed extreme urge incontinence. When the urge comes, I must go. There is no in between. I leak occasionally if I can't make it.
Sometimes, I danced around to avoid going and successful in holding it, only to find the urge comes back in 1 or 2 minutes, or if the urine volume is still low it may be another 5 or 10 extra minutes. But the urge is always intense when it comes.and more when in standing up position. Sitting or lying positions are less pressure.
I saw a urologist, had ultrasound and CT scan. He commented that my bladder is on the smaller size as during my ultrasound test the full bladder volume was 270ml. My own journal records when urge comes, I normally pass about 210 - 250ml. But many times the urge comes under 200ml.
1) can anyone share momentary remedies for intense urge?
2) what about permanent treatments that you can recommend/experience and the success rate.
Thank you in advance.
