Do you have difficulty with your bowel movements? If going to the restroom is difficult or feels incomplete, then there may be a good chance that you are suffering from Pelvic Floor Dysfunction. You might want to consider pelvic floor treatments at a Burlington, ON, rehabilitation centre. Here is what you need to know about this condition.
About the Pelvic Floor
The pelvic floor muscles support a
variety of organs, including the bladder and rectum. When they function
normally, it’s possible to control your bowel and bladder movements. They
contract and release as part of your body’s waste removal processes.
The pelvic floor muscles need to coordinate
with one another for urination and defecation to proceed. However, there may be
cases where the muscles cannot relax and contract properly, which can make
bowel or bladder movements difficult or even impossible.
Identifying Pelvic Floor Dysfunction
The symptoms of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction can
vary from person to person. The exact cause of this condition is unknown.
Research suggests the causes might stem from nerve or muscle damage in the
pelvis. Common symptoms include:
·
Painful Urination
·
Inability to Complete
a Bowel Movement
·
Frequent Need to
Urinate or Defecate
·
Ongoing Pain in the
Genitals, Rectum, or Pelvis
One of the most effective pelvic
floor treatments involves physical rehabilitation. The course of
treatment might include learning relaxation techniques, stretching, and
exercises.
