The Best Skin Care Products for Incontinence in 2024
Incontinence affects people in many different ways. While medical research and technological innovation have made it much easier to manage the condition, it still carries a stigma for some people. In some cases, affected people may disengage socially and suffer a deterioration in their quality of life.
Skin health is an equally prevalent problem, although much less obvious to an observer. Adult diapers nowadays are really good at keeping the skin dry, but there is always a possibility of accidental leaks and prolonged wetness of the skin. Without proper care, this can very quickly cause irritation and rashes or even severe inflammation and infections.
In this second installment of our product showcase series, we’ll present the top picks for a range of hygiene and skin care products.
Skin Cleansers
Skin cleansers are products specifically formulated to remove dirt, sweat, and other impurities from the skin. They play a crucial role in maintaining overall skin health for people experiencing living with incontinence. They effectively remove urine, feces, and sweat, which can irritate and damage the skin if left on for prolonged periods.
The mineral content and acidity of urine can lead to a breakdown of the skin's natural protective barrier, making it susceptible to infections. Skin cleansers help maintain this barrier and reduce the risk of complications. Regular cleansing also removes bacteria and debris that can slow down the healing process of any existing skin problems.
