- Shortness of Breath: Feeling breathless can be frightening, but it's a common symptom with various treatable causes, so talking to your doctor is crucial for finding the right support and management.
- Urinary Incontinence: Experiencing accidental urine leakage can be embarrassing, but it's a very manageable condition. Your doctor can help find the right solution to improve bladder control and your overall comfort.
