Ok, not sure why I am so slow to figure this out, but thought it might help someone else out too. If you figured this out automatically, feel free to laugh at me!
I have struggled with bowel incontinence for years. When I had a really serious accident it would be off to the shower if available. If not available, I would clean up as best I could and worry about rashes and smell if I missed anything. I have always had a hard time cleaning up between my legs in the area between my bottom and my genitals. (Warned you about details!!).
So I tried something the other day that has been absolutely life-changing! Once I am done wiping everything off I can get from behind and in front, I take a fresh adult wipe (has to be kind of long) and pass it between my legs so that I am holding one end in one hand up front and the other end in the other hand in back. Then I basically floss between my legs with the wipe. Do this with a couple of wipes if necessary. Oh my gosh it is so nice! It has reduced rashes for me and gives me a confident clean after even the worst accidents while out and about.
I hope I didn’t make anyone uncomfortable with the details, but I truly hope it will help some folks. I am a nurse (and a dad) and have wiped many bottoms on other people before I myself became disabled. It is so much easier to reach everything on someone else, but has been so hard to reach on myself. No longer!
Hope you have a great day. Keep fighting the good fight!
