Greco-Arabic medicine, a rich repository of knowledge on various bodily ailments, offers significant insights into managing and treating numerous health conditions. Among these, urinary incontinence (UI) stands out as a frequently overlooked, underreported, and untreated medical issue that profoundly affects the quality of life for women across all age groups. Salasul baul, a term used in Greco-Arabic medicine, describes this distressing condition characterized by an inability to control urine, significantly impairing the daily life and well-being of those affected. Understanding the risk factors associated with urinary incontinence is crucial for effective prevention. Patient education and strict adherence to a personalized exercise regimen are vital in managing and preventing UI. Greco-Arabic literature documents a variety of causes for urinary incontinence, including Abnormalities in bodily or bladder temperament, Vertebral dislocation, Pregnancy, Use of diuretics, Laxity of bladder musculature, Associated conditions such as uterine inflammation, omphalitis, and constipation. The primary treatment approaches in Greco-Arabic medicine focus on addressing these underlying causes. This includes correcting bodily temperament through dietary changes and herbal remedies in cases of abnormal temperament and eliminating morbid humors when they are dominant. Key remedial measures emphasized in this traditional wisdom include Dietary adjustments to balance bodily humor, Herbal formulations tailored to specific conditions, and Riyazat (exercise) to strengthen bladder control. Moreover, preserving this traditional knowledge holds potential for future pharmaceutical and drug discovery research, offering valuable insights for developing new treatments based on age-old remedies.
