24/9/2019 0 Comments Pelvic Floor TherapyMy surgeon wanted me to see a pelvic floor therapist the last time I saw him. I have been dealing with a small bit of incontinence and also what feels like in egg when I sit down.
I had my first appointment about 3 weeks ago. She asked my to track my liquid intake and who often I peed on to separate days before my next appointment. At the next appointment, she took that data and had me start stretching out the time between urination. She had me start at 2 1/2 hours between with the goal of getting it up to 4 hours. I started out with the 2 1/2 hours and found it easy enough to do, so I increased it to three the following day. By the following week, I could easily make it the 4 hours without issue. She was happy with that. Last week, we started to address the "egg". We determined that is was primarily scar tissue with some knotted muscles for good measure. She worked on both that day and I could tell the next morning that it had helped. After work today, I see her again. We will be working on the scars and muscles again and also start with some microneedling, which will help even more with the scar tissue. The incontinence soundly stopped! 2 days in a row now I have woken with dry panties! I also so Dr. Kim again last week. The granulation tissue is getting better. He cauterized it again and so far, it seems to be staying away! Maybe the scar tissue was some of the issue there!
