Incontinence is more common than you may think. Bladder and bowel problems affect millions of people worldwide; men and women, young and old alike. Yet, despite being so common, many people continue to needlessly suffer in silence, failing to get the help they need.
Take a look through our the full range of incontinence products available at Homecare Medical here.

What Is Incontinence?
There are two types of incontinence:
- Urinary incontinence - when someone loses control of their bladder.
- Faecal (or Bowel) incontinence - when someone loses control of their bowels.
This may happen all or most of the time or may just be a case of the occasional unfortunate leakage. Urinary incontinence is far more common than faecal incontinence – although both conditions affect millions of people every day.
For those people who cannot be fully cured or those who may just need some extra help whilst waiting for treatment, there are a range of special products and devices to help manage symptoms. The most common way of managing continence is by using Continence Pads and you’ll find a wide selection of these in our stores or on this website in the Continence Care section.
