What Causes Urinary Incontinence When Suffering From Lumbar Spondylosis?
I have lumbar spondylosis with moderate spinal stenosis at L-3-L-4 & severe spinal stenosis @ L4-L5. As well as
1. Loss of urine post voiding – urine dribbles after tissue wipe
2. Post voiding – when going from sitting position to standing position - Need to immediately sit again to void – happens at least 1-2 times after voiding.
Do these symptoms require a urologist for further evaluation? Or will medications work?
Thanks, Aida

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
You have not mentioned your age and gender here, if you are male patient and above 50 years of age then prostrate enlargement need to be ruled out, I hope this could be helpful to you, next time do not forget to mention your age and gender, bye
