Hi.. Just wondering if anyone has a noisy stoma where it was previously quiet. When I first got my stoma, I would never hear it at all. I could eat anything and do anything, but over the last few years, it has gradually gotten worse. It's obviously wind that you can hear the most, and it always picks the most embarrassing times to happen. I have noticed that if I press on my stoma, I can stop the noise, but I only do this when I definitely don't want to hear it. Is there anything I can buy to press on the stoma as a temporary solution? Thanks for reading ... Stuart.
