When you are bedridden as a man, it can be a challenge to do much of anything by yourself. You may need people to help you eat and help you clean yourself. It can be very embarrassing to have someone helping you with all of these different aspects of your day to day life so having someone having to help you go to the bathroom as well can feel like too much.

Luckily there are other options that can make it so that you are able to at least urinate on your own. Many men do fine with catheters or with assistance to get to a bathroom, but for others urine collection devices may be a better option. There are different ones that you can choose from when you are facing a long term situation.

It is a good idea to look for one that is designed to prevent spills and to keep you from urinating all over the place. These will make it so that you are able to urinate in a sitting position without having to worry about making a mess. This is a great option for bed ridden men who would like to retain at least a small amount of their independence.
