What muscles are under voluntary control of the brain?

Skeletal muscles that move our bones are under voluntary control. They have a microscopic appearance with striations so they are called striated muscle. Some striated muscles such as muscles of the eyelids (the obicularis muscle of the eye lid) are under both voluntary and involuntary control... you can be blinking by thinking or blink without thinking. This is partly because the obicularis has some specialize "smooth" involuntary muscle fibers mixed in. There are many muscles called smooth muscles that are part of organs such as the stomach and intestine that are not under voluntary control. This muscle has no microscopic striations and is called smooth. The last main type is cardiac that is somewhat like striated but is typically not under voluntary control.

Cardiac muscles are found in the heart. Neither these two muscle types are controlled. We can control what are called voluntary muscles which are the muscles that were used to move our bones.


Why do some patients urinate during seizures?

In certain types of seizures the person loses consciousness and voluntary control of the muscles in the body. This loss of control extends to all parts of the body including the muscles that help control retention of urine. In addition, muscles contract and relax uncontrollably. These may all lead to the loss of the ability to control the bladder and a subsequent release of urine that is stored in the bladder at the time.
