The present invention relates to underwear to be worn by a user for absorbing liquid rectal discharge related to hemorrhoids or any other rectal disease. In particular, the present invention relates to a novel underwear design that incorporates a non removable, washable composite material that absorbs the uncontrolled discharged liquid and prevents liquid from passing through the underwear.The washable composite material consists of two main layers. One, that faces the outside of the underwear, is a waterproof but breathable layer to prevent liquid material to pass through the underwear. The other one, that faces the inside of the underwear, is an absorption material that takes up the discharged liquid. Due to the breathable nature of the waterproof layer, water vapor can pass through it and allows therefore the absorption layer to dry off. This provides a comfortable dry feeling on the skin and additionally protects the user from uncontrolled liquid release through the underwear.The composite material, compromising the absorbent material and breathable water proof material, has a sufficient absorption capacity for a typical daily liquid discharge related to hemorrhoids or rectal diseases. The underwear, together with the incorporated composite material can undergo multiple washing and drying cycles. All materials of construction allow high washing temperatures (60-95 degree Celsius) for disinfection and to destroy unpleasant odor. The composite material is incorporated in the underwear around the anal area and the material is thin and soft making if comfortable to wear. Additional the composite material is incorporated such in the underwear that it is not visible from the outside or inside of the underwear. This provides the user with the additional benefit of intimacy.The present invention will therefore simplify the life of numerous people and give them protection against uncontrolled rectal liquid discharge.
