Can nifedipine cause incontinence?

Postby William2 » 05 Feb 2017, 19:04

I started using nifedipine Friday, and it's been great. I almost feel looser than normal down there. That got me to thinking, could it cause incontinence? I'm trying to just use a pea-sized amount.
8/09 - 12/10: fissure, cured by LIS/fissurectomy
1/17 - present: fissure/hemms, healed but pain remained, 3 CRSs (nifedipine, infrared coag) were no help, cold dilating >= 1" helped but still have pain when sitting

Hi WIlliam,
I don't believe so, worst case (if it did) it would only be temporary while you use it.
