@reets70 When I had my cervical spine surgery for spinal cord compression, I was having problems emptying my bladder. It would just stop half empty, and I had to force it. At that time, I was seeing my physical therapist who was realigning my neck, and then it was normal again. When I had muscle spasms that shifted my neck vertebrae, I had trouble emptying again and also walked with a limp. I didn't have any other nerve compressions and I didn't have numbness in the saddle area. I did have pains that could be anywhere in my body and that changed with my neck and body position. Those were early symptoms, and if I hadn't had surgery to decompress the spinal cord, it would have progressed to worse symptoms.

Do you have spinal cord or nerve compressions? I'm sure there can be other reasons for incontinence that are not spine related.

ablation usually for pain control. I am a former RN & i agree that not all specialists are up on these issues My spine dr did a CT myelogram & told me my Incontinence not from my spine, but my arachnoiditis. I am having bowel incontinence at times. I am going to ask more questions ... New technology on the market, all the time. I am going to see if there are any treatments for bowel issue. Apparently, a lot of people suffer in silence. It's difficult subject to bring up.
