Not usually. I think it's more obvious the tighter the pants. But patients with incontenence tend to adapt, they change the type of pads, often will wear black. Patients who don't want to resort to pads, often you see them wearing black or if they are at the gym, they wear black so it's not as noticible. Usually, if you're not wearing tight clothes, pads and diapers aren't usually noticed.
