What is a good mattress protector for incontinence?

August 27, 2010 by admin  
Filed under Incontinence

My friend is getting me a new bed and mattress instead of my hospital bed.
I wear condom catheters that come off sometimes when I'm in bed.
So I need a good way to protect the mattress.
I don't know what to try,pond liners or tarp or a bed protector.
The ones they sell at kmart are too fragile for me.
They only last like, 3 times.
Any ideas?

What causes lower back pain in the morning?

Filed under Back Pain

I wake up every morning with lower back pain which usually goes away by mid day. Its been more then a week. I had this problem in the past, but it went away, now it's back. How do I know if its my mattress? My husband doesn't get any pain from sleeping in the mattress.
What should I do? I went to see a Chiropractor and all he did was to pop my back.

I've done my homework on dustmite allergies but i still cant figure out how and when to clean my allergy covers. I bought some from walmart 2 months ago.

Moreover, Ii washed them like I wash clothing but they began to thin and rip. How do you clean them and can anyone recommend allergy covers?

What about an allergy proof mattress?

Thank You.
