A person with incontinence is not able to prevent urine and stool from leaking, everyone knows that. But, this can lead to skin problems near the buttocks, hips, genitals, and between the pelvis and rectum. Excess moisture in these areas makes skin problems such as redness, peeling, irritation, and yeast infections likely.

Takin Care Of The Skin

Using diapers and other products can make skin problems worse. Although they may keep bedding and clothing cleaner, these products allow urine or stool to be in constant contact with the skin. Over time, the skin breaks down. Special care must be taken to keep the skin clean and dry. This can be done by:

- Cleaning and drying the area right away after urinating or having a bowel movement. 

- Cleaning the skin with mild, dilute soap and water then rinse well and gently pat dry.

Use our soap-free skin cleansers that do not cause dryness or irritation and follow the product's instructions carefully.
