As we age, the incidence of urinary incontinence is increasing among the elderly. In daily life, some elderly people cough, laugh, or unconsciously urinate in their pants, and even leak urine when walking or in bed.
That's because as they get older, their various bodily functions are deteriorating. When their bladder ages and becomes weak, they cannot control urine well, leading to urinary incontinence.
Urinary incontinence makes the elderly nervous sensitive and burdened with both physical and mental stress. Some elderly people either do not go out or simply reduce the number of times they drink water to avoid this situation. Elderly people who have a nanny at home to take care of often feel ashamed of the trouble caused by leaking urine to the nanny.
They find it difficult to speak up and shy of telling others. Worried about the unpleasant odor on one's body, refusing to communicate, socializing, and even affecting relationships with loved ones.
In order to reduce the pressure on the elderly and prevent them from losing their dignity, it's better to choose diapers for them and let them spend the whole day with peace of mind.
Adult diapers are diapers designed for adults, mainly targeting elderly or adults with mobility difficulties, paralysis, or incontinence. Some are also provided to those who are unable to use the toilet due to prolonged busy schedules.
Are diapers and diapers still foolishly indistinguishable?
Many people are confused about the difference between diapers and diapers, believing that there is no difference between these two varieties and often casually buying and using them at home. In fact, there is a difference between the two.
Diapers are a bit like underwear, with places at both ends of the crotch that can be buttoned up. Wet diapers are a bit like sanitary napkins used by girls, but they are longer, thicker, and larger than regular sanitary napkins.
Generally speaking, diapers, like underwear, wrap around the buttocks and have poor breathability compared to diapers. It is usually recommended to use diapers in summer and diapers in winter. Due to the hot summer weather, poor ventilation can easily cause red buttocks. The winter weather is relatively cold, and diapers can also prevent getting cold.
When choosing diapers (not wet), pay attention to four points:
One option is to choose diapers that are labeled with a hygiene license, production date, and within their shelf life.
The second is to choose large, medium, and small models based on the actual situation of the elderly to prevent side leakage during operation.
The third option is to choose diapers with strong water absorption performance to prevent leakage.
The fourth option is to choose a soft texture on the skin surface, which can keep the skin dry, soft, and comfortable to avoid wear on the skin of the elderly.
If using diapers, the adhesive film also has the function of adjusting the waist size. When using, it is important to adjust the fit of the pants.
