Don't Make Grandma Laugh-Incontinence Is Common

Grandma doesn't like to laugh or sneeze.  
When she does, she has to squeeze her knees.
The grandkids know
She has to go..
If she laughs, she also pees.

Sound familiar?  Lots of adults suffer from stress incontinence.  Pacific Medical Supply has a wide selection of incontinence products, from lanolin wipes to descret disposable briefs.

Stress incontinence, which is more common in women, causes urine to leak when you laugh or cough. Overactive bladder, also called urge incontinence, is caused by urinary muscle spasms that cause an urgency to urinate.

Incontinence Products For Adults-We Have Them

Three elderly men are talking about their aches, pains and bodily functions. The seventy-year old man says, "I have this problem. I wake up every morning at seven and it takes me twenty minutes to tinkle."

The eighty-year old man says, "My case is worse. I get up at eight and I sit there and grunt and groan for half an hour before I finally have a BM."

The ninety-year old says, "At seven I pee like a horse, at eight I flop like a cow."

"So what's your problem?" ask the others.

"I don't wake up until nine."

YIKES!  Time to call Pacific Medical Supply for all your adult incontinence supplies.

Don't Make Me Laugh...I Have To Pee

This morning as I was buttoning my shirt, a button fell off. After that, I picked up my briefcase, and the handle fell off. Then I went to open the door, and the doorknob fell off. I went to get into my car, and the door handle came off in my hand. Now I'm afraid to pee.

But I'm not afraid to call Pacific Medical Supply for all my, ummm, needs.
