Diaper rash is a generalized term indicating any skin irritation that develops in the diaper-covered region; it can happen to anyone who wears diapers – babies or adults. Diaper rash can be extremely uncomfortable, so we have some tips for caring for your skin while wearing adult diapers & briefs.
- Change diapers often to avoid too much moisture and irritants that are in contact with the skin.
- Clean skin and all creases that may be present gently with mild soap and water, no-rinse cleaners, or similar products, remove all soap residues, and gently pat dry. Avoid using harsh soaps that can alter the skin’s pH with frequent use.
- Pre-moistened skin wipes provide skin cleaning and moisturizing benefit while away from home or traveling.
