I never had ulcers under my wafer until I had my stoma relocated to the upper part of my abdomen. (It had been down just above my belt line). Now I have had about 7 in the last year. I think I found a way to fix it with a combination of latex barrier, transparent film, and an ostomy belt worn at night. Never had to do this years ago.
I know that I am not the first. Tell me what you have done to prevent future ulcers.
