I've tried powder ad baby oil.  Both seem to keep things in order but I have finally settled on rubbing alcohol.   I use a little 1 pt squirt bottle from WalMart and soak everything well eah morning rubbing it into all crevaces.  No problems the past two years even in Phx summers.  No undies here as they tend to bind and pinch off my texas cath.  I must have free gravity flow for that to work.  My bag tube is stiff clear plastic hose from Ace hdw.  No holding in place necessary.  I have normal sensation so I can tell when something is amis.  I know, no help.  Maybe some new ideas you can try.   Dave

Hello,
 
Do any of you guys have problems with your scrotum swelling or peeling from all the sitting we do?  If so, do you use any sort of support system?  I would appreciate any input you could give me as I am having problems along this line.  Also, do any of you wear underwear.  I have always worn underwear so I could tape the hose to my leg bag to the underwear to keep it for moving around.  Any input regarding this.
 
I am going to see a surgeon on Tuesday regarding the possibility of having a colostomy bag put in.  While I'm there I thought I would approach the possibility of having a supra pubic catheter put in as well.  I am having problems the older I get inserting my Foley catheter due to the increased size of my prostate gland.  Would also appreciate any input regarding this issue.
 
Thanks,
 
Gale :-)
