How is waterproof underwear helpful in fecal incontinence?

I want to know how are water-proof underwear helpful in fecal incontinence? I am looking for a underwear which donot allow sweat to pass through it and prevents the outer clothes from soiling..is it what waterproof underwear serves? And are waterproof underwear..easily washable? To Remove stain in one wash?
I am talking about Anal Leakage

1] it isn’t – feces will irritate skin within a short amount of time
2] waterproof underwear will prevent urine or sweat from burns or rashes on skin
3] waterproof underwear performance is variable depending on brand –
and the re-usable ones still stain very easily
4] disposable ones work best
