I need to shave around my stoma but not sure what to use? I read an electric razor and the one I got I tested it on the opposite side of my stomach and it's pulled my hair .. my stoma nurse had said I could use a regular razor but I am not comfortable with that and I am prone to razor burn and have sensitive skin... What does everyone do / use? Would love any advice and suggestions please.
