To start managing incontinence properly it helps to
understand what type of incontinence you have and to look into the treatment
plans for it. To learn more about incontinence click here; http://www.caregiverpartnership.com/landing/incontinence/.
Here is additional information about the 4 main types of incontinence:
1.
Stress Incontinence – this type of incontinence
is the most common as it can happen to anyone. When you sneeze, cough, or laugh
you are placing additional pressure and strain on the bladder and this can
cause it to end up allowing urine to escape before you want it to. Women that
have give birth commonly experience stress incontinence and it is also quite
common in women that are going through menopause.
2.
Urge Incontinence – this type of incontinence
happens when your bladder has the sudden urge to urinate. You likely have no
control over the bladder because it has muscle spasms and this is why you end
up with urine leakage throughout the day.
3.
Overflow Incontinence – with this type of
incontinence you may have a condition that requires additional medical
treatment because you have something like an enlarged prostate.
4.
Fecal Incontinence – with this incontinence you
will have damage to the anal sphincter or rectum and your body is unable to
store the urine and feces that it should. It is quite common in elderly women.

So what can you do about incontinence? If you have it, you can easily treat it with adult diapers. These products help you to avoid the embarrassment that incontinence can cause and will allow you to find some relief from incontinence. How can you find the right type of incontinence products? It helps to use a product finder tool: http://www.caregiverpartnership.com/incontinence-product-finder/. This tool will allow you to find the exact right type of products that you know you will be able to appreciate and can actually use.
Not only do you want to use adult diapers to help you
manage your condition you also need to make sure you are using wipes and other
products that will be able to keep your body clean and prevent things from
occurring like a urinary tract infection. Using wipes will cleanse the skin and
can easily prevent problems from occurring as too much urine on the skin
actually causes rashes and other concerns.
Try on several different products in order to find the
product that will best suit your needs. Some people find that using adult
diapers works well but others find that looking for other products like
washable underwear suits their needs much better. It is a good idea to try on
several different types of products in order to find the product that you do
like the best and the product that will be able to provide you with relief and
can keep you from getting a urinary tract infection. The washable products are
also advisable as they will save you a lot of money and can make managing
incontinence much easier.
