How to care can make ostomy patients more comfortable and their families more worry-free?

Now with the improvement of medical level, many diseases that could not be cured before have been well treated, and the chance of rebound is very small. But have you ever heard of ostomy? Once this disease is not handled properly, it is likely to cause wound infection, which will have a negative impact on yourself and your family. Ringtones, especially for family members, will increase their worries and make patients more uncomfortable.

Ostomy is an operation performed in the abdomen of human body. Because the human abdomen is the bottom of the small intestine, which contains a lot of digestive juice. If the wound is handled carelessly, it is very likely to cause infection, and even the small intestine will digest the surrounding skin. Bring serious discomfort to patients. Different from general postoperative care, ostomy care needs long-term or even lifelong care, which requires certain nursing skills. Therefore, medical staff will tirelessly teach patients and their families to replace the ostomy bag and chassis before leaving the hospital.

Because patients want to be more comfortable, professional knowledge is essential to carefully study the replacement process of stoma chassis and stoma bag, pay attention to hygiene during the replacement process, and add nursing products according to their own conditions, such as stoma skin care powder, which can keep the skin dry and protect the skin from the influence of chassis adhesive and excrement, as well as products such as stickers, belts and leak-proof cream to help prevent leakage. These consumables will indeed increase the cost of nursing, but ensure the health of the skin around the stoma and avoid the leakage of dirt.

Abdominal ostomy patients can get the same quality of life as ordinary people through high-quality ostomy nursing. You can even do proper fitness exercises to better solve your physical discomfort.
