Large area of sore or broken skin

Large area of sore or broken skin

Larger areas of sore or broken skin can be due to skin conditions such as psoriasis or dermatitis. This can prevent the pouch from sticking securely which can cause the pouch to leak contributing to further skin damage. See below for recommendations to help prevent a large area of sore skin.

Immediately next to your stoma

It is important to try and keep the skin around the stoma in good condition.

  • Measure the stoma once per week during the first 8 weeks as the stoma will change shape and size.
  • Ensuring that your pouch is cut to correct shape and size will help to prevent problems.
  • Wash and dry your skin well, try not to use wet or baby wipes as they might prevent your pouch from sticking well.

See below for product recommendations.
