What is functional urinary incontinence?
Urinary incontinence, meaning leakage, is an involuntary loss of urine, sometimes without the sufferer even realizing they have done so. Most people suffer from urinary incontinence due to loss of bladder control.
However, functional incontinence is caused by a physical or mental impairment; this makes it difficult for you to go to the toilet and use the toilet when you need to.

What are the causes and symptoms of functional urinary incontinence? 
Causes: Functional incontinence can be due to various external or psychiatric disorders.
Symptoms: The biggest sign of functional incontinence is the inability of the person to get to the toilet in time to remove their clothes and defecate before the accident. It is not necessary for the patient to pass a few drops or empty the bladder all the time. Amount may vary. But one thing is for sure, functional incontinence itself does not cause any pain.

What are the treatments for functional urinary incontinence?
Treatment of functional urinary incontinence targets the underlying condition that prevents the patient from going to the toilet. Here’s how to manage functional incontinence:
1.Relief can be found by changing your surroundings to improve toilet convenience. Make sure the path to the bathroom is clear and uncluttered.
