Complications as a result of Incontinence
Google

Prolonged or constant contact with urine can damage the skin

Prolonged or constant contact with urine can damage the skin. Bacteria on the surface of the skin break down the urea in urine to form ammonia which causes irritation, soreness and possibly skin breakdown and ulcers in severe cases.

Sometimes a thrush infection of the genital area combined with incontinence can complicate the problem. This is more likely in people with diabetes.

Weak pelvic floor muscles can lead to a prolapse, which is when part of the vagina, bladder and/or urethra drop down into the entrance of the vagina. Surgery is usually necessary to repair this.
