- There is a condition called "Cauda Equina" that is caused by herniated, bulging and protruded discs in the Lumbar Spine. The Spinal Nerve is compressed by the damaged discs causing loss of bladder (and sometimes even bowel) control. There are Medications and Therapies to help alleviate the symptoms of this condition, as there is no cure once it reaches this stage...but, you should check with your doctor. Preferably a Neurologist. Relief is available.
- This problem is not because of kidney disease. Please check with neurologist. Thanking you. PRASANNAKUMAR
- Yes, these go almost hand in hand but, make sure and let the doctor know. Don't go to one doc for one issue and another for something else and neither one know the real problem. The major nerves will effect you in more ways then one back here.
