The Merits of Disposable Underpads

Monday, May 24, 2010

Incontinence comes in all shapes and forms, and for those suffering from minor incontinence, a full brief or diaper isn’t always necessary. Disposable underpads offer a more discreet means of coping with incontinence issues. These thin pads are comfortable and undetectable while offering a high level of absorbency.

Most underpads come with a woven top-sheet, which allows fluids to easily pass to an absorbent core. This design allows for superior protection while still allowing airflow. You can choose from several pads depending on the size of the person and their specific incontinence needs.

Coping with Incontinence

Friday, May 07, 2010

For people suffering with incontinence issues, it can be difficult to know where to turn for answers. It certainly isn’t a topic that people would prefer to talk about, but it is necessary. Many people with incontinence issues think that they are the only ones, but the truth of the matter is that over 25 million people in the United States alone are suffering from incontinence.

While it is most common in people over 50 years old, incontinence can be an issue for younger people as well. There are myriad causes of incontinence, but weak bladder muscles, stroke and other diseases are some of the most common culprits. Luckily, several products can help you manage the condition, including Depend disposable briefs and pads.
