Is the Brief Too Tight???

odonatacare


Should a woman’s disposable undies be tucked in the leg creases too? I thought it was bad to have it tight against the skin?


Always - you want to keep urine and feces in the groin area, but be very careful that the elastic is not pulled too tight, as this can cause pressure wounds - and can be very uncomfortable. If the patient is actually bed bound - or mostly bed bound - please use tabbed briefs. The pull-up variety have a lot of elastic and can be very tight causing wounds, discomfort and certainly are much more difficult to put on than tabbed variety. Thanks for your question! Thanks for watching and keep us in your daily focus, Nancy
