Disclosed is an absorbent pad which efficiently diffuses excretory fluid and gives no sense of discomfort to a wearer even after excretion. A front sheet and a rear sheet are joined to each other at a plurality of first junctions and a plurality of second junctions, and when viewed in plan, the first junctions extending in a longitudinal direction are arranged at predetermined intervals in a width direction, and second junctions extending in the width direction are arranged at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction. A plurality of cells, each of which is defined by an adjacent pair of the first junctions and an adjacent pair of the second junctions, is formed between the front sheet and the rear sheet spaced apart from each other. An opening extending in the longitudinal direction is formed in at least one of the first junctions.
