Is there a way to tuck in the tail of a Hollister Ostomy bag? Other brands seem to have pockets to tuck the tail in, but can't seem to figure out if there is a pocket on the Ostomy brand bags.....

Not on the Hollister model I use. If you want a smaller bag, you could look into kid-size bags. &zwj

I use Hollister (bag type 18182) and have always folded/rolled the tail and tucked it up under the outer cover, actually says on the box "Lock 'n Roll," and I do!

Does it stay in place? I will try doing that! Thanks so much!

Hi Barbiedoll, try this, you can make it as small as you want when going out and take it off at home. Hope it works for you. Regards IGGIE

I fold my bag up at the bottom and wear underwear to hold it in place, but always leave room for any output. I found this worked even at the hospital because the bottom, no matter which type was used, always irritated my thigh.
