You can buy cloth underpads that are less visiblr to passers by. Go for a plain colour rather than tartan. I would hazard a guess that the width of the underpad is 40cm. Anything wider than that will stick over the side of the chair.

Sounds like your wheelchair could fit you better. Not much underpad should be visible at all.

Can I ask what injury you sustained? Was it brain injury, spinal cord or both? Hope that's not a rude question.


I don't have a working washer/dryer soir can't buy a reusable

That is very true. When facing both bladder/bowel, then options are very limited in dealing with it.
Now, how bad is your disability?
I take it it is just from the waist down?

Have you been to this forum? It is run by someone with a similar injury to yours and there's a lot more advice relating to spinal injuries there than on this specialist continence forum. Have a look.
