Many ostomates choose to ignore skin and ostomy problems, because they believe they just have to learn to live with it, or because they haven’t found the right solution yet. But as normal it may seem, it doesn’t have to be this way.
Poor quality of the skin
Skin problems on the peristomal skin come in all shapes and sizes. For example, the skin of someone with an ileostomy can be red and irritated because of the thin and acid stool. Sweating on hot days may leave a sweltering and itching feeling, especially when wearing a two-piece patch which doesn’t air for two days. Allergies or infected hair follicles may cause an unpleasant feeling as well. Freshening up with Stomydo® is the solution for these daily inconveniences, and gives you a healthy and painless skin.
Appliances do not attach well on troubled skin full of bumps and scabs. So when the skin quality is poor, it will eventually lead to leakages. And leakages, on their turn, cause skin problems. That’s how skin problems and leakages keep following each other up, continuously tormenting the ostomate with inconveniences and uncertainties that form a big obstacle in their daily life.
An infected hair follicle may be caused by bacteria or other infections, and causes an itch, pain or a continuous irritation of the peristomal skin. Because of this, the appliances may not stick properly and leakages occur. By using Stomydo® regularly, the ostomy and skin stay clean and healthy, which will lower the chance of infections (such as the infected hair follicle) and other inconveniences.

Stomydo® ensures a better blood flow, which causes the skin to become firm and smooth. Because of this, appliances are attach better, so leakages and skin irritation will stay away.
