Ostomy
An ostomy is a life-altering surgery that creates a stoma, an opening on the body, to divert body waste. It comes in different forms: colostomy, ileostomy, and urostomy, each rerouting a different part of the digestive or urinary system. Colostomy involves the large intestine, ileostomy uses the small intestine, and urostomy diverts urine away from the bladder. Post-surgery, ostomates rely on an ostomy bag or stoma bag to collect waste.
Brands such as Coloplast, Hollister, and Convatec provide a wide range of these bags that are discreet, user-friendly, and designed to adapt to different stoma types and sizes. Using these brands' products, individuals can lead an active, fulfilling life despite their medical conditions, ensuring their ostomy doesn't limit their lifestyle.
