forces the person affected to immediately go to a toilet.

EN
stress incontinence.
Anal incontinence - Anal incontinence can be caused by an
impairment of the sphincter muscle. It occurs after
surgeries of the sphincter muscle, such as haemorrhodial
disease or births with perineal rupture, etc. The trigger can
also be an age-related muscle decline.
Anal incontinence is also classified into 3 severity levels:
Involuntary loss of
1st degree: flatulence
2nd degree: flatulence and/or liquid faeces
3rd degree: solid faeces
The treatment of incontinence with
stimulation current
Stimulation current therapy is suitable for the treatment of
stress incontinence, overactive bladder or urge
incontinence as well as its hybrid forms and muscular
forms of anal incontinence. With this type of therapy, the
nerves and muscles in the pelvic floor area are stimulated
by a light current. The current is usually applied via a
vaginal or rectal probe.
