Surgical and Non-surgical Management of Overactive Bladder

Overactive bladder (OAB) is a condition characterized by a sudden urge to urinate, often leading to frequent trips to the bathroom. Non-surgical management includes lifestyle changes, bladder training, medications, and physical therapy to strengthen pelvic muscles. If these methods don’t provide relief, surgical options may be considered, such as bladder augmentation, nerve stimulation, or minimally invasive procedures to increase bladder capacity or reduce urgency. Both approaches aim to improve quality of life by managing symptoms effectively while addressing the underlying causes of OAB. Always consult a healthcare professional to determine the best treatment plan.
