Help with Skin Folds, Raw Skin, and Bleeding After Ileostomy

Topic Explanation
The forum topic is about a person seeking advice for dealing with skin folds, raw skin, and bleeding after having an ileostomy. The individual is struggling to find a suitable seal for the stoma, experiencing irritation, and is seeking recommendations to heal the skin and manage the situation effectively.

Advice and Insights
- Use Sensi Care Sting Free Adhesive Remover spray to remove the appliance easily.
- Ensure the skin is clean and dry before applying stoma powder and Cavilon, followed by a barrier ring fitted snug around the stoma.
- Consider using Sensura Mio 16715 convex wafer for better results.
- Pair an ostomy appliance belt with the convex appliance for additional support.
- Expose the irritated skin to air to aid in the healing process.
- Consider using ostomy pastes to maintain a leak-free barrier in a skin fold.
- Use adhesive spray, stoma powder with 3M barrier film, and NY Stop fungus powder to protect the skin around the stoma.
- Avoid using soap with fragrance or oils creams and opt for gentle, pH-balanced cleansers and soft washcloths for cleaning around the stoma.

These insights and recommendations aim to help the individual find a suitable seal for the stoma, manage skin irritation, and promote healing.
