Issues with pullup type new continence nurse want me to try

Wed Oct 31, 2018 5:08 am

Well my new continence nurse has ordered me a couple of new samples to try

Molicare mobile 10 drop
Abri flex Large L3
Abri- let anatomic pad 500ml[ATTACH=CONFIG]31886[/ATTACH]

How do I get the leg gathers of Molicare mobile and Abena pullups to stop digging into me while sitting?

Also my continence nurse has me trialling abri flex L3 molicare mobile 10 drop (both large) and wants me to trial them with an abri let anatomic pad in them and wondering does it matter which way I put the abri let pad into pull up

Thank you

Most products that have a specific way to be worn based on design will have very clear indications and directions on which way is front or back etc. otherwise it won't matter depends on the design.

I've used both the Abri-Flex L3's and Molicare Mobile pull-ups and have had very good luck with both. They both have good size internal leak guards and will easily take 2 to 3 wettings with no problem. The only issue, as with most pull-up style diapers, is trying to keep them from sagging and allowing the leg gathers to move away from your body which can then allow leaks. Wearing compression pants or boxer briefs may help with this problem.
I've never had a problem with the gathers digging into my legs, in fact quite the opposite, so the only suggestion I have is to maybe try a different size or use some baby powder?
I have also added pads to my pull-ups but you have to be careful that they do not interfere with the internal leak guards. With this in mind thinner flow-thru type booster pads may work better than thicker ones.
