I have an ostomy stoma that isn't level with the skin, about the size of a quarter. The opening itself is smaller than the size of an unsharpened pencil. All I can get to come out is muddy-looking water, after using mag citrate. What is concerning me is that there is major pressure in my whole abdomen and behind the ostomy stoma, plus reduced appetite. Any ideas or suggestions?
