Troubleshooting

Pad feels uncomfortable or shifts position

Ensure you are using snug-fitting support underwear or fixation pants. Adjust the pad's position to ensure it is centered and lies flat. Check that the support underwear is not too loose.

Leakage occurring

Verify the pad is the correct size and absorbency for your needs. Ensure the pad is properly positioned within the support underwear and that the underwear provides a snug fit around the legs and waist. Change the pad regularly as it becomes saturated.

Skin irritation

Ensure the pad is changed regularly to maintain dryness. Gently clean and dry the skin during changes. If irritation persists, consult a healthcare professional. Ensure the correct product type (urinary vs. fecal) is being used if applicable.
