Introduction
The study discusses the various issues of different types of dementia like Huntington’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and vascular dementia. It discusses the relationship of strep throat and glomerulonephritis. It does a detailed study of urinary incontinence. The management issues and the pathophysiologic characteristics of the different types of incontinence are studied (Vaughan et al. 2018).
Huntington’s disease
It could age groups as early as 2 or as late as 80, bur is most common with the age groups of 30 to 50. The disease is characterised by uncontrollable movements of locomotory parts like arms, legs and the also the face, head. The upper part gets affected. The abilities to think, reason gets hampered.

Symptoms ofheadache that occur suddenly, problems are faced while walking, even a side of the body may get paralysed (Triantafylidis et al. 2018).

A disease of the kidney that occurs after an infection that affects the skin or the throat. The immune system of the body gets involved. The urine gets infected and there is puffing and swelling of the ankles and the space around the eyes (Khan et al. 2018). High levels of blood pressure are observed and the person gets tired all the time. Abnormal amounts of protein are observed in the urine.
Urinary incontinence
The problem is characterised by the inability or difficulty to prevent the leakage of urine. Stress factors like cough, sneeze, laugh could lead to the problem. This refers to the condition of stress incontinence. Cases of urge incontinence include severe cases of neurologic disorders and other symptoms include frequent need to urinate, urge that is quite intense to urinate, urine loss that is involuntary. In case of overflow incontinence, there is feeling of urine dri
