Research shows that millions of people live with incontinence in the UK. It can damage your self-esteem as it’s tough to deal with, and many find it embarrassing. But you’re not alone. There are many ways for you to get support and lots of products to help with incontinence.
At Complete Care Shop, we have a range of high-quality incontinence aids available to help take away some of the stress your condition causes. Read our guide for the best incontinence products for men and women, which we hope can build your confidence and independence again.
Incontinence can greatly affect your day-to-day life, leaving you feeling embarrassed, restricted and isolated. Whether you’re personally affected by this condition or are caring for someone who is, our range of incontinence products can help to make daily life a little easier.
TENA Pants Maxi Incontinence Pants are a more discrete, comfortable option than pads. The Body-Close Fit makes them comfortable to wear for both men and women, while the elasticated waist means they can be pulled up and down with ease.
These pants also include an Odour Control System to keep odours at bay for up to 12 hours, enabling you to go about your day in comfort as they can be worn for longer periods of time.
Conti Soft Dry Wipes are effective incontinence wipes. Good skin care is essential, especially where bowel incontinence is an issue as it can cause inflammation of the skin surface. Their soft "textile" feel is suitable for sensitive skin and ideal for everyday needs.
The extra moisture from incontinence can lead to skin irritation and soreness. Our barrier creams create a protective layer on your skin, helping to reduce the risk of skin irritation. You can get a multipack of this cream, so you know you've always got one to pop in your bag when you go out.
Drinking too much or too little can negatively affect incontinence. Our drinking bottles have clear markings on the side so you can keep track of how much you drink each day.
The Hydrant Water Bottle has a handle that can also be used as a hook, so you can carry it with you or attach it to your bed, chair, or wheelchair. We also have the Hydrant 1 Litre Water Bottle with Drinking Tube, which can be hooked onto bed rails, handles, and the back of wheelchairs, making it accessible at all times.
Incontinence tends to impact more women than men due to events specific to women such as childbirth, pregnancy and menopause, which can affect the pelvic floor muscles, and bowels may become weaker. Our best products for female incontinence include incontinence pads, incontinence pants, and incontinence underwear, like our Caretex Camelia Ladies Incontinence Briefs. Shop our women’s incontinence range for more.
Many men, typically older men, also suffer from incontinence. It can be caused by prostate gland problems, an injury or accident, or simply old age. Shop our men’s incontinence range to find our best incontinence products for men. You’ll also find incontinence pants and disposable pads, as well as underwear like our Caretex Men's Night Incontinence Boxers.
Incontinence is unpredictable, making it difficult to tell when you need to go to the bathroom and to get there in time. Our bed and chair protectors are other great products to help with incontinence. They can help protect your furniture from leaks, spills, and accidents.
The Abso Budget Chairpad—5 Layer can fit onto your chair, car seat, or wheelchair to help protect your furniture in the event of an accident. It’s available in 4 colours, padded for your comfort, and has a black terry fabric backing with wrinkle and shrinkage-free binding. It can absorb up to 2 litres of urine, making it a great option for day-to-day protection. It's very comfortable to sit on and can be washed in industrial machine washers and dryers.
Incontinence at night can be exhausting to deal with. No one enjoys changing sheets in the middle of the night, which is where bed pads can help. We have a range of disposable bed pads and washable bed pads in a variety of sizes, so you can choose the one that will offer you the most coverage at night. They’re designed to protect your mattress against any accidents or spills.
You may avoid travelling with incontinence as you’re not always sure to find a toilet to use when you need it. Complete Care Shop has the best incontinence products to keep you clean and boost your confidence so you won’t have to give up your travel plans.
When you’re out and about, it’s not always easy to find a toilet when the urge hits. Urinals can offer you a way to relieve yourself when there’s no toilet in sight. Our Female Travel Urinal and Uribag Male Travel Urinal are lightweight and durable, with a snap-lock seal so they won’t leak. Once used, they can be stored for emptying and cleaning at a more convenient time.
Finding a locked toilet when you’re desperate to use the facilities can add unnecessary stress to any outing. This is where the RADAR National Key Scheme comes in handy, as it lets those with a special RADAR Toilet Key have access to locked public toilets across the UK. There are two versions of the key available, one with a smaller head and one with a larger head that is easier to turn if you have trouble with your grip.
It’s important to stay hygienic when dealing with incontinence, and our hygiene aids can help with that. We have hand sanitisers and disposable gloves so you can stay clean when you don’t have access to the proper facilities.
If you’re struggling with incontinence, please don’t suffer in silence. Speak to your GP as they will be able to offer you advice and support.
