How do I find the right shaped pad for incontinence?

Incontinence care should never be a one-size-fits-all product.

 

When choosing the right incontinence product, consider factors such as absorbency level and size. Start by assessing the degree of incontinence - whether it's light, moderate, or heavy - as this determines the type of product, from pads to pants. Absorbency levels are often labeled using a "drop system" to help select the right amount of protection. Fit is key: a product that's too large or small can cause discomfort or leakage. Lifestyle and mobility also influence your choice, with active individuals benefiting from pads or inserts, while those with limited mobility may require more secure options.

We recommend choosing a Two-Piece solution, a shaped pad combined with fixation pants

How can I prevent skin irritation when using incontinence products?

To prevent skin irritation while using incontinence products, proper sizing and handling are crucial. The right fit helps avoid chafing and discomfort, ensuring the product stays in place without leakage. Choosing breathable materials that allow moisture to evaporate can reduce the risk of irritation, while ensuring that the skin is clean and dry before applying a new product further minimizes the chances of dermatitis.
