my partner uses drainage bags, which are a pain for him in warm weather, we have heard of drainage bags that can be worn on the thigh unfortunately the dr/pharmicist have know idea what to look for, also, apparently some are available with a crysta substance that soaks up the urine (a bit like a nappy) does anyone have any suggestions?
