Is it possible to have to strain to empty bladder at times, but have incontinence as well? i have herniated disc, sciatica.. mri confirmed. annoyed!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
This is an emergency: With that information of having to strain yourself to urinate and having episodes of incontinence, you need to seek treatment immediately, I would recommend the ER with a spine consult.
