Good afternoon, everyone. This is Dr. Yvette Edwards again with you here today, and I'd like to talk about bedwetting. And a lot of times when we think about bedwetting, we're thinking it has to be a child or a young person. What I'm finding is that a lot of— and I won't say seniors, but people over 50 or even in their 50s are beginning to suffer from bedwetting or where they're having to buy household products, feminine products, to use because they've been wetting their bladders all week. Do you know that the nerves that come out of the spine in the lower back actually feed the bladder, the area where the problem could be coming from because there's pressure on the nerve? So let's take a look at that. Right in through here is what we know, what is known as the pelvic bowl, and inside the pelvic bowl is where the bladder sits, and these nerves right here Go down, some of these nerves actually go into the area of the bladder. If we can clear out what's going on here, what are we gonna have? Less medication, we're gonna have less having to run to the bathroom as soon as you get to a certain place, as soon as you get home you have to make a mad dash to the bathroom. We wanna see that stop, we want you to live a more normal life, we don't want you to have to be getting up in the middle of the night because you have to use the bathroom.
