This topic is about someone who had an ostomy reversal two years ago and is experiencing persistent abdominal discomfort and sharp pains. They are wondering if these issues are normal after such a procedure. Here are some insights and advice shared by others who have had similar experiences:

1. Many people report experiencing occasional sharp, stabbing pains at the site of their former stoma. Doctors often suggest that this is likely due to internal scar tissue, also known as adhesions.

2. Some find that gently rubbing or massaging the area where the stoma used to be can help alleviate the stabbing sensation.

3. It's common for the scar at the old stoma site to remain visible. It might appear flat but slightly sunken, and it may not completely disappear over time.

These shared experiences and tips might help in understanding and managing the discomfort after an ostomy reversal.
