Involuntary urination

2026-01-16 01:04:14
My mother takes cholesterol medication. Recently, she has been experiencing tooth pain, so she is taking antibiotics and painkillers. However, she is experiencing involuntary urination (incontinence). It happens while she is washing clothes, and it even happened in her sleep last night. This has never happened before. She is 50 years old. Is there anything to worry about?
