Why do I pee when I cough?

Coughing is a very common situation in daily life. There are many reasons for coughing, which may be caused by colds, sore throats, pharyngitis, bronchitis and other diseases. However, some people will urinate when they cough, which greatly affects their daily life and needs to be actively understood and then treated. So here we will introduce why you urinate when you cough.

If you have urination when you cough, it may be due to relaxation of the pelvic floor muscles and bladder sphincter. It is recommended that you go to the urology or gynecology department of the hospital for a urodynamic examination to make a clear diagnosis and choose appropriate treatment based on the examination results.

Cough urinary incontinence Stress urinary incontinence can be divided into three degrees according to clinical manifestations: Grade I: Urinary incontinence occurs when coughing, laughing, sneezing, exerting force, or engaging in strenuous activities. Grade II: Urinary incontinence may occur with slight exertion such as standing, walking, holding breath, or when standing up from a sitting position. Grade III: Urinary incontinence is not related to activity and can occur even in a supine position, i.e., urinary incontinence can occur anytime and anywhere. [br/] Because of damage to the pelvic floor muscles, bladder-related nerves, and bladder sphincter, when abdominal pressure increases (such as when coughing, laughing, or sneezing), urine cannot be controlled in the bladder and leaks out. This type of urinary incontinence often occurs when women's pelvic floor muscles or local nerves are often injured during pregnancy or after childbirth, causing these muscles to relax, or when nerves are injured and the command transmission pathways are damaged.

Symptoms: Typical symptoms are involuntary urine outflow from the urethra due to a sudden increase in abdominal pressure when the patient is standing due to coughing, laughing, sneezing, lifting weights, running, jumping, going down stairs, and strenuous activities. In mild cases, only a few drops will flow out occasionally, while in severe cases, it will drip continuously. The causes of this type of urinary incontinence are complex and require detailed examination. As long as the examination results show that the patient has functional urinary incontinence, it can be completely cured with drug treatment and self-rehabilitation exercises. You must have confidence. Treatment recommendations: Once the diagnosis of urinary incontinence is confirmed, symptomatic treatment should be adopted, and most cases can be controlled. If inflammation occurs, anti-inflammatory treatment can be taken; if cystourethrography is performed, surgical treatment can be performed if bladder and urethra are abnormal. However, for a small number of patients, especially elderly women, treatment targeting the cause is often ineffective, resulting in refractory urinary incontinence.
