Common symptoms include a sudden, uncontrollable urge to go; needing to go more than eight times a day; waking up twice or more at night to urinate; and leakage (incontinence).<br />
<br />
"In the majority of cases, the cause is unknown," says Sandip Vasavada, MD, co-head of the female urology and voiding dysfunction section at the Cleveland Clinic. Incidence increases with age: For many women, OAB symptoms appear in their 40s. If a woman doesn't seek treatment, the condition can impact her quality of life, leading to depression and anxiety, fear of sexual intimacy, decreased work productivity, avoidance of travel, a greater risk of nighttime falls, and urinary tract infections, says Diane Kaschak Newman, codirector of the Penn Center for Continence and Pelvic Health at the University of Pennsylvania Medical Center.<br />
<br />
The good news is that OAB can be brought under control with the following techniques Vasavada and Newman suggest:<br />
<br />
<strong>Drink 6 to 8 Cups of Water a Day</strong> Many women believe that drinking less water will ease their urgency. On the contrary, says Newman: Adequate fluid intake helps eliminate bladder irritants and can actually prevent the urgency or frequency of OAB. Drink throughout the day, and stop three to four hours before bedtime.<br />
<br />
<strong>Do 30 Kegels Twice a Day</strong><br />
This simple move strengthens the pelvic muscles around the bladder. Best done after you've gone to the bathroom, Kegel exercises can be performed anytime, anywhere. To identify the right muscles, squeeze as if you're trying to stop the flow of urine (without tensing your thigh or stomach muscles). Once you know where to flex, tighten these muscles for 10 seconds, then release and relax for 10 seconds.<br />
<br />
<strong>Eliminate Possible Irritants</strong><br />
One at a time, try reducing your intake of chocolate, cocoa, coffee (sadly, with OAB it can be a problem), tea, soda, alcohol, spicy foods, highly acidic foods (like citrus fruits and juices and tomato-based products), and anything containing aspartame-based sweeteners.<br />
<br />
<strong>Keep a Diary for 3 Days</strong><br />
Track how frequently you empty your bladder to help your urologist diagnose your condition as well as identify symptoms and potential dietary irritants. Record what, how much, and when you eat and drink. Write down when you go. Note any incontinence episodes.<br />
<br />
<strong>Consider Drug Therapy</strong><br />
If after all this you're still uncomfortable straying too far from the facilities, you may want to discuss medication with your doctor. Certain drugs can relax the muscle that triggers bladder contractions, and can reduce symptoms significantly within weeks. <br />

As e-commerce has matured, so have many of the components necessary to manage a successful e-commerce business: technology offers more features and is easier to use, vendors have become more comfortable with drop-shipping, and payment mechanisms have evolved to give customers peace of mind. All this means that today <a href="http://www.nightingaledirect.com/">DME companies</a> can leverage e-commerce as a tool to help grow sales, rather than having to build an entirely new business. <br />
<br />
People expect to be able to buy what they need from the comfort of their couch. The result is that the brick-and-mortar store is sometimes just a showroom--the actual shopping is done at home. Your customers expect to be able to shop online--and if they cannot shop online with you, they will do it somewhere else.<br />
<br />
If done right, e-commerce can offer your business a number of benefits. You can show and sell products that are not on your showroom floor or in inventory. You can reach customers who cannot otherwise make it in to your store--customers who, for instance, may work during your business hours or who may be homebound. Existing customers can more easily browse your product offerings, while new customers can learn more about the products and brands that you carry. <br />
<br />
Finally, e-commerce allows the customer to separate the shopping experience from the purchasing experience. They can visit <a href="http://www.nightingaledirect.com/">your store</a>, learn about products and then take the time to make the decision at home without pressure--and you do not have to worry about losing a sale just because the customer has walked out your door.Option One Healthcarehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06974831656289174637noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7262060374571563133.post-77809434686452885742011-04-30T18:12:00.001-07:002011-04-30T18:12:45.522-07:00NIGHTINGALE® by Select Medical <p><div class='bloggerplus_text_section' align='left'>NIGHTINGALE® has long been a respected name in the long term care industry.
