Urinary incontinence can happen for a number of reasons. It can be very embarrassing for those who experience it and can severely affect confidence. Many people are reluctant to discuss their 🚽toilet habits 🚽and tend to tolerate their symptoms. However, #incontinence is a common condition and there are multiple ways to manage it. If you think you may be experiencing urinary incontinence, speak to your healthcare professional. For more information, see our website: https://ow.ly/yWlG50UCA7n #urology #incontinence #continence

With London Landmarks Half Marathon almost upon us, we want to highlight one of our runner’s, Spencer Ham’s story and why it is so importance not to ignore any changes and if something doesn’t feel right ‘below to belt’ to speak to your healthcare professional. Spencer noticed some changes on his foreskin “If the issue was anywhere else on my body, it wouldn’t be embarrassing and that’s even more reason for sharing and raising awareness.” The doctor advised to remove the foreskin for analysis. Fortunately, there was no cancer, and Spencer is keen to encourage men “if in doubt, get checked out”. If you would like to read Spencer’s story, you can visit https://ow.ly/rOA550VoIYl
