This may sound weird, but does anyone know of a product that is like a small cushion/foam type thing that can be placed inside your underwear right over your stoma area to protect it? I just started my part-time job back since chemo and I work as a cashier at a grocery store. After my first full shift, I realized my stoma was tender. It seems that I am pressed against the counter scanning groceries right where my stoma is. So, I was thinking about putting some sort of padding inside my underwear to kind of protect it when working. Is there such a product already or am I going to need to make something? Thanks.
