Good afternoon,
I've had my osotomy for 12 years, haven't had problems or really much to do with it. My stoma sticks out a little and underneath it looks like half a grape fruit buldging out, is there any way to lessen this from sticking out so much?
Thanks
Hi
I take it you mean, bulging through your clothes? I use convex bags, which you can get a belt for that hooks on, that pulls mine in a bit( I have a slight hernia). I then cut my daughters old legging up and use the tops of them, to pull it in some more
