My mom has severe incontinence especially at night. She had Lyme about 10 years ago and COVID about 1 month ago. We got her night diapers and night pads, but it is leaking. Any helful suggestions.

Blue Poppy Classics Bu Zhong (Yi Qi Tang) works great.

It says 3 caps twice a day, but better start with a low dose. Too much will cause a hike in blood pressure.

If this is a new symptom, I would make sure she does not have a UTI. Also have most of her fluid intake earlier in the day.

Definitely take her to a urologist.

Oops, I should have said check for a UTI first, especially if there is pain.
