Yesterday, I was going a little crazy with sensations after I changed my pouch on Thursday. The itching was a pain in the neck, and when I'd walk around, I'd feel the pouch tugging on my skin. It's not that I'm in dire pain, but I wanted to see if anyone has any advice on how to correct the problem. I did take a little Tylenol and felt like it helped, but I don't want to be dependent on it.
