Mixed Urinary Incontinence & Dermatological Issues in Male Patients

Mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) is a condition that combines stress incontinence (urine leakage due to physical exertion like coughing, sneezing, or lifting) and urge incontinence (a sudden, uncontrollable need to urinate). MUI is a significant issue in male patients, particularly those with a history of prostate surgery, neurological disorders, or aging-related bladder dysfunction.

Urinary incontinence (UI) is a significant health issue affecting men, with prevalence increasing with age. Studies estimate that UI affects 11% of men aged 60–64, rising to 31% in older age groups. The condition stems from mechanisms such as overactive bladder (urge UI) and poor urethral sphincter function (stress UI), leading to variable risk factors and treatment strategies.
