This topic is about someone experiencing issues with the baseplate, also known as the wafer, of their Salts-brand ileostomy pouching system. Here are some helpful steps and advice to consider:
1. First, try to pinpoint the exact problem. Is the baseplate not sticking properly when you apply it, or does it come off after some time?
2. Think about whether this issue is something new or if it has been happening since you started using this product. If it's a new problem, there might be a faulty batch of Salts pouches or baseplates. In this case, it would be a good idea to reach out to the supplier or manufacturer for assistance.
3. Don't wait too long to get help, as this could lead to leaks or skin irritation. It's important to arrange an appointment with a local stoma nurse or the nurse from your delivery company. They can provide a hands-on assessment and help you troubleshoot the issue.
