It is not normal for skin to be red and irritated when you have a stoma and wear a pouch. If this is the case, you need to address this immediately to avoid any further complications. There can be many causes to explain the irrigated signs. For example, leakages due to wrong installation of your medical device, or the type os skin barrier you are using are some examples that can cause redness and irritation. To know exactly the source of your problem and how to fix it, please contact your specialist as soon as possible or visit one of our stoma clinics.
