IMPORTANT! If you have any concerns – such as skin problems or how to use new products – you should always consult your stoma care nurse.

  • Consider wearing tight or elastic underwear that cover the ostomy when playing sport to help prevent the adhesive edges from rolling.

 

 

  • It may help to change your appliance a couple of hours before doing your physical activity. This way the adhesive will have time to settle while still being relatively newly changed.
