Richard, I donโ€™t have much hair in these areas anymore either. Probably because adhesives ripped the hair right out over the years. But the one on my lower belly was a doozy. I found that the K tape didnโ€™t get stuck in hair as bad as paper tape didโ€ฆ

Hi ๐Ÿ‘‹ Katherine 5, I have heard of maggots being used in wounds, but only where there is necrosis of the skin. I met a guy years ago who had and operation in his chest and there was a lot of dead tissue in his chest cavity, so his doctors put maggots in his chest and the maggots ate all the dead tissue and never hurt the living tissue. That's all I've ever heard about maggots being used, I hope this helps in some way, good luck ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ’—.

Richard you should really try kotex or some kind of womens pads. Most of them now have sticky back, so they stick to your underwear to stay in place. They are different absorbencies, depending on how bad your leaking is.
