Abri-Form Premium S2 Briefs offer moderately absorbent and disposable incontinence protection. Incontinence appears in individuals because of injuries to one of several systems in the body that controls the urinary tract system. Sometimes it's the weakening of the muscles that allow you to hold urine in the bladder, other times it's rogue signals telling the bladder to release its contents. Ultimately, the best way to diagnose which kind of incontinence you're experiencing is to talk to your doctor. Regardless of the reasons, there are several options you could use to deal with the symptom of uncontrollable urinary voiding. Abena Abri-Form S2 is one of these options for those with waistlines between 60 - 85cm (23-2/4 - 33-1/2 Inches). The problem that these briefs solve is removing the fluid introduced to the pelvic area and it does this well. Abena S2 briefs can absorb up to 1800mL or about 61 ounces. To illustrate this point, that's almost an entire standard bottle of soda worth of fluid. Plus, the special top-dry surface keeps you feeling dry even when your brief is full. These briefs are latex-free and have been dermatologist tested. Plus, with the odor-blocking guard and a product like PeriFresh No-Rinse Perineal Cleanser, you won't need to worry about embarrassing scents. Complications from IncontinenceIn an article published by the Mayo Clinic regarding incontinence, they specified three potential complications those with incontinence face. The first of these was skin problems. Many skin problems associated with incontinence are caused by two factors, the contents of the fluid their skin is in close contact with and excess moisture. Excess moisture can cause the skin to macerate. Maceration weakens the skin, leaving it at risk of infection, and is much more likely to suffer skin breakdown. Maceration, if left unchecked, can result in wounds that could require extensive medical treatment to resolve. The best way to avoid this is to maintain a dry skin environment. For someone with incontinence, this means changing incontinence briefs regularly. Another complication associated with incontinence, according to the Mayo Clinic is developing a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI). These infections occur because the moist environment caused by excess fluids allows for the growth of bacterial cultures. These cultures, then, have a chance to migrate to the urethra where they can cause irritation and further infections of the bladder and even kidneys. However, simple, frequent urination is usually all that's needed to cure this. The Mayo Clinic recommends drinking plenty of liquids to aid this. It's recommended that you see a doctor if you recognize symptoms of a UTI to assess if it requires additional pharmaceutical treatment. The final complication outlined by the Mayo Clinic of Incontinence is negative impacts on your social life and personal relationships. There is no stated cure for this, however, it's recommended that anyone dealing with incontinence create a plan with their doctor to take control of their life by managing it in the way that's best for them.
