Curv Skin Lotion for Skin Irritation: Any Experiences?

When dealing with skin irritation around a stoma, it can be challenging to find the right products that provide relief without causing other issues. One product that has been mentioned is "Curv Skin," which is believed to be a lotion that might help soothe such irritation. However, there are concerns about whether using a lotion could affect the adhesion of the wafer or skin barrier. Here are some insights and advice from others who have considered or used similar products:

1. Some people have not heard of Curv Skin lotion and therefore cannot comment on its effectiveness for ostomy-related skin irritation.

2. There is a general caution against using lotions, as they can potentially compromise the adhesion of the skin barrier. It is often recommended to use products that are specifically formulated and tested for ostomy care to ensure they do not interfere with the adhesive.

3. A traditional method for managing irritated peristomal skin involves a few steps:
- First, apply an ostomy-approved stoma powder to any raw or moist areas around the stoma.
- Next, seal the area with an alcohol-free skin protectant, such as a barrier wipe or spray.
- Finally, apply the wafer or adhesive over the protected area.

These steps are designed to help manage irritation while maintaining the effectiveness of the adhesive.
