An incontinence device and applicator therefor. The incontinence device comprises a generally tubular, soft latex bag which tapers to an opening at an upper end thereof. An area adjacent said opening is adapted to be adhesively attached to the tissue overlying the anal sphincter of a patient. The applicator is adapted to fit within the incontinence device. It includes an elongated handle and a head attached thereto, the head being configured to fit against the anal area of the user and bring the attachment of the device to bear against the anal tissue for adhesive attachment thereto. The head includes an oval, ring-shaped bearing surface and means for adjusting the size of the bearing surface so that the device may be used on patients displaying a wide range of anatomical variation. A method of making the incontinence device by vacuum molding is also disclosed.
