Incontinence

At Phelans Pharmacy, we understand the challenges that come with managing urinary incontinence. It's our mission to provide you with a broad selection of incontinence products and wear that prioritise both your comfort and discretion. From incontinence pads for men and women to incontinence pants for the elderly, our collection addresses a diverse range of needs.

What Is Incontinence?

Incontinence is a condition that many people experience, yet it's not always openly discussed. To better understand this condition, it's essential to differentiate between its two main types:

  1. Urinary Incontinence:
    This is when an individual occasionally or frequently experiences unintended urine leakage due to a lack of full bladder control. It's the more common form of incontinence.
  2. Bowel Incontinence:
    Also known as faecal incontinence, this involves unexpected stool leakage, stemming from an inability to control bowel movements.

The intensity and regularity of incontinence episodes can vary from person to person. Some might face rare and minor leakages, while others may encounter them more frequently and severely. Even though urinary incontinence is seen more often, both kinds of incontinence affect a significant number of individuals daily.

Types of Incontinence Products
