wetchris 207 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Got stuck on the London Outer Orbital motorway yesterday morning and ended up busting for a piss. I somehow held it in until I could drive off the motorway and find a petrol station but I was leaking into my underwear as I walked from the car. I am an older guy who has difficulty holding on at the best of times! The only trouble was others were in the same situation and I ended up in a queue outside the only unisex toilet. And I clearly wasn't the only one in a desperate state. Before I got in to relieve myself more piss escaped and I wet my jeans. These pics were taken when I got home. Do other people find that they can hold themselves in the car but as soon as they to to walk they start to lose control? Brandie 1 Quote Link to comment
Spectator9 951 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 It's the change in position. More than once I've made it into my driveway with a very full bladder, but the instant I got out of the car and stood up I had to pee on the shrubbery right there. I couldn't hold it long enough to get in to the bathroom. It's a good thing I have no close neighbors. Quote Link to comment

It's standard for me now. As BENAir01 says, it comes with age. It happens to me even when I stand up out of an armchair. Mind you, I encourage it by not going to the toilet when I first get the signal. If I have to be dry because I'm out somewhere, I don't drink beforehand, at all. Quote Link to comment
Poseidon 62 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 This sounds all too familiar - the trials (and pleasures) of an enlarged prostate, something that affects most older men to some degree. Holding on is getting more problematic these days with stress leaks and sudden urgency when having had to hold on such as during a journey and finally being able to dash to the toilet. As I'd rather not take the usual OAB drugs due to side effects I've chosen to live with it and just take sensible precautions away from home if I know getting to a toilet might be difficult. The Tena shaped pads for men are very good for smaller leaks while in a high risk situation, for a long road trip, flying etc the new male Tena pants take away the stress and deal discreetly with an accident. Ironic really that after years of enjoying woman having accidents in their knickers I'm now having accidents myself, though as apparently over 20% of men over 50 have incontinence problems it's actually quite common, just not talked about.

wetchris 207 Posted April 6, 2018 Author Share Posted April 6, 2018 I read yesterday that one in ten men over the age of 65 have incontinence issues. I have a couple of younger friends and they really get turned on my the thought of "uncle" not being able to make the toilet and changing his pants for him! I am a lucky "uncle" Quote Link to comment
