May be: that's situational, and at any rate, if noted by a healthcare provider in a medical record, it should be contributary, just descriptive and non-judgemental, don't worry

Possibly...: The medical chart is not judgmental; it provides facts to document the reason for visit, findings, and treatment plan. A physician may find it important to document "wearing diaper" depending on the nature of your visit; however, please understand that this documentation would not be to place any judgment on you or your lifestyle. Take care.
