Skin care tips for incontinence

Incontinence irritates the skin and makes it susceptible to dermatitis, infections and rashes.Hygiene tailored to the skin of older people helps to prevent skin irritation and at the same time ensures well-being.

Always keep skin clean and dry, especially when changing used incontinence products.Wash the affected person's intimate area at least twice a day with warm water and a soap-free, mild cleanser.

Avoid products containing alcohol or disinfectants, which can dry out the skin and cause soreness, rashes and skin damage.

A traditional washcloth can be too rough for affected skin - cloths or wash mitts made of soft material are perfect for caring for older people.

FAQ

Why do so many people suffer from incontinence as they age?

As we age, the pelvic floor and sphincter muscles can relax.As a result, those affected can no longer hold urine and stool as well.In addition, the bladder's elasticity decreases and it can therefore absorb less urine than before.If mobility decreases, going to the toilet can become more difficult and you cannot reach it in time.Incontinence affects many older people and is perceived as very unpleasant and embarrassing.With understanding and support with suitable incontinence and skin care products for bladder weakness, you can help maintain the dignity of those affected and ensure optimal care.

Why is the skin more sensitive than usual when the bladder is weak?

The skin of older people is already very sensitive.If moisture from urine or feces remains on the skin during incontinence, the body's own protective function can no longer be maintained and skin damage occurs.If open spots form on the skin, bacteria can enter and cause a rash.

Isn't it enough to clean your intimate area regularly with soap and water?

Frequent washing with soap and water can actually make the situation worse, as regular soap dries out the skin and weakens it even more. The result can be an unpleasant skin rash.There is also a risk of infection because the skin's natural protective barrier is compromised and can no longer reliably ward off pathogens and bacteria.
