Stress incontinence: Stress incontinence has nothing to do with emotional stress. Rather, it is the stress of abdominal contraction with cough or sneeze where the increase in pressure in the abdomen overcomes the bladder sphincter, causing release of urine. For now, be sure not to close your mouth when you cough or sneeze (increases intaabdominal pressure but do cover your mouth). Go to ur dr for further workup.
