Can You Swim with a Stoma Support Band?

Swimming with a stoma support band can be a bit of a mystery, especially if the product instructions don't provide any guidance. If you're wondering whether it's okay to wear your support band while swimming, here are some helpful insights from others who have been in the same situation:

- Many people have found that there is no issue with wearing the support band in the pool. It will get wet, just like it does when you wash it normally.
- It's a good idea to try it out for yourself. Everyone's experience can be different, so see how the band performs for you when you swim.
- If you're still unsure, check the manufacturer's website or reach out to their customer service. They might have specific recommendations or limitations that aren't mentioned in the packaging.
