Anal mucus leakage

I take care of someone with mucus leakage from her backside. She wants me to find something to put there to catch it right when it comes out not once it reaches undies where her pad is. Any suggestions?

The Butterfly pads that I purchase on Amazon are helpful for this as they have an adhesive that allows you to put it on the skin and place it between the buttocks to absorb the leak. Pricey, however. Hope this helps.

B-Sure pads from Birchwood Laboratories are also for light bowel leakage. You can find out more about the company and this product by starting with this link and then also going to their website: continencecentral.org/birch...

I hope this helps.
