An incontinence device for a male patient, comprising an elongated, flexible, tubular sheath that includes a relatively thin walled upper portion that is adapted to be rolled and that is adapted to be received over the male member of said patient, the lowermost end of said sheath terminating in a reduced relatively thicker outlet portion to which a drainage receptacle is adapted to be interconnected, a tubular cuff joined to the uppermost end of said tubular sheath and defining a chamber that is inflatable when the sheath is mountable on said male member, wherein said cuff firmly engages the base portion of said male member for securely mounting said sheath on said male member, an elongated lumen extending longitudinally of said sheath and being integrally molded as a part thereof for a major portion of the length of the thin wallEd portion of said sheath, so that a wall of said lumen defines a portion of a wall of said sheath, the portion of said lumen that is formed as an integral part of said sheath being rollable therewith prior to mounting of the sheath on the male member, wherein the sheath and lumen as rolled therewith are easily mounted in place on said male member, one end of said lumen communicating with said cuff for directing a fluid under pressure thereto for the inflation thereof, valve means being adapted to communicate with an external source of said fluid under pressure and with the other end of said lumen, wherein fluid received by said valve means from said source is directed to said lumen and into said cuff for the inflation thereof.
